Husband and wife duo, Meagan and James Becker are a part of the new guard based in the Hunter Valley - fighting to reshape the region and it’s rigid preconceptions surrounding the growth and production of wine. Estate grown, certified organic as of 2019, is the highlight of the show. While minimal intervention is the brief to produce considered wines that show detail, restraint, nuance and complexity.
