Adam Foster of Syrahmi was a chef who became a sommelier, and then a winemaker. Ten years into his journey with his wine label, he’s now growing vines in Heathcote.

Adam won back to back Young Gun of Wine People’s Choice trophies in 2008 & 2009.
In partnership with Liebherr, we get a brief insight to Adam’s journey, and how he approaches his craft.

We’re all familiar with vineyard images of vines trained along a trellis, forming neat curtains of grapevine rows as the growing season progresses. But recently in the Australian wine drinkers’ lexicon, the phrase ‘bush vines’ has been popping up. So what are bush vines, and, more importantly, how do the wines from bush vines differ to those from a conventional farming system?
The 2021 Vineyard of the Year Awards Top 50 has just landed. “There’s so much great work being done in vineyards across the country,” said awards panellist Max Allen, “and wine drinkers still don’t hear about it often enough – but we’re trying to change that!”
This year marks the 17th annual edition of the Young Gun of Wine Awards – created for young wine labels and winemakers on the rise.

The annual list has become the go-to guide for drinkers looking for cutting-edge wines and the stories behind them. And now, the time has come to reveal our Top winemakers for 2023.
