Our Team

After completing Built Environment (Architecture) studies at the University of South Australia and working in the architecture and design field, Mark returned to the family grape growing business in 1995. When the business expanded in 2000 to include the winery at Currency Creek, Mark was instrumental in its design and development. Mark then took on the role of Winery Director for a period of 17 years, overseeing all aspects of the winery operation including a strong focus on financial accountability and commercial bulk wine trading.

Mark has brought this wealth of knowledge and experience to SA Wine Co since commencing his role as Managing Director following the company’s formation in early 2017.

Greg's career in the wine industry began way back in 1987 when he started working as a cellar hand in the Adelaide Hills. From there he developed a passion for wine and decided to become a winemaker. Greg went to study wine science at Roseworthy College, graduating in 1991.

He then travelled to New Zealand and took up a position as an Assistant Winemaker for Nobilo Wines. Through the next 8 years Nobilo Wines expanded as did the New Zealand wine industry and by the time he left Nobilo in late 1999, he was the Winery Manager of the Auckland winery.

He then travelled to Hawkes Bay located on the east coast of New Zealand and took up the position of Winemaker / Winery Manager at Matariki Wines. The vineyards were located on the famous Gimblett Gravels and he was involved with building a new purpose-built winery for the 2000 vintage crush.

By late 2003, Greg decided to come back home to South Australia and took up a position with Penley Estate in the Coonawarra and, working side by side with Kym Tolley produced exquisite cabernets from the famed Terra Rossa Soils.

In 2018 Greg moved to Leconfield Wines producing wines from Coonawarra and McLaren Vale before taking over the position here at SA Wine Co.

Greg has completed 36 vintages to date and has dedicated his entire working life to the wine industry.

Greg is married to his Kiwi wife Rebecca and enjoys all things wine, food, sports and looking after their dogs.
