Winemaker Bio
Marnie Roberts has been the winemaker at Winegrapes since vintage 2020. Her career began 20+ years ago as a laboratory technician in a large, bulk wine producing winery in Mildura, Victoria. Since then, she has worked as a cellar-hand, laboratory technician, winemaker, and vineyard manager across the globe.
Marnie’s passion is to look at individual vineyards, across all varieties and regions, and to produce wines that represent site and have a sense of place. She believes balance is the key to all her wines which are a strong representation of the variety. Marnie enjoys working closely with Winegrapes’ growers and understands this is key to getting not only fantastic fruit that needs minimal winemaking, but also working within the demands of our changing environment.
