Excerpt - Judges'  Comments.
"Ezio and Wendy are in the classic mould of Section A winners of the competition having started with very limited resources but achieved outstanding success through a combination of hard work, determination and exceptional management skills.  Their attention to detail in all facets of their operation would be second to none and the judges had no hesitation in awarding them first place in Section A for 1998."

Excerpt - Judges Comments
"Ezio and Wendy are outstanding examples of primary producers who have successfully made a transition from one industry to a totally unrelated one.  They have achieved this despite limited resources through an enormous amount of hard work, dedication and enthusiasm.  The excellent results now being obtained are a great testimony to this achievement."

bullet The Victorian Wine Show Vineyard of the Year 1996

"Annapurna Estate has focused on wine styles that suit this cool, high rainfall area.  The Kiewa Valley site promotes high vigor and various techniques have to be used to suit the situation."

John Whiting,
Senior Industry Officer with Agriculture Victoria
Judge assisting in the Victorian Wine Show 1995.

 

"Beautiful wine, food, scenery & company."
