Our Review
Jo Marsh makes light of the numerous awards she won while studying for her degree in agricultural science (oenology) at the University of Adelaide. She then won a contested position in Southcorp’s Graduate Recruitment Program; in ’03, she was appointed assistant winemaker at Seppelt Great Western. By ’08 she had been promoted to acting senior winemaker, responsible for all wines made onsite. After Seppelt, Jo became winemaker at Feathertop, stepping out on her own in ’14 after 2 happy years. She has set up a grower network in the Alpine Valleys and makes a string of excellent wines. Glenn James joined as winemaker in '15 and the 2 later married in '16. -JAMES HALLIDAY
