Jon Heslop - Winemaker
Jon has had over 12 years experience in the wine industry. After spending 3 years as a wine sales representative with Orlando-Wyndham he decided his real passion lay in winemaking.
His winemaking career began as a cellar hand with Richmond Grove in the Barossa Valley. He then moved to the Hunter Valley where as winemaker at Tamburlaine Wines he was influenced by Rod Kemp of Lakes Folly, PJ Charteris of Brokenwood and Andrew Thomas of Thomas Wines.
In 2004 Jon moved back to Queensland to establish Witches Falls Winery.
In 2008, Jon's continuous quest to produce the best wines took him beyond the vineyards of Australia to Burgundy where he completed a vintage with Francois Chaverit at Domaine Chantel Lescure in Nuits St George.
Jon has completed a Bachelor of Applied Science in Oenology (winemaking) from Charles Sturt University, Wagga Wagga.
