Get up, stand up
Reggae fan and one-time tractor driver Brendon Keys doesn’t care much for the establishment – the quirky wines in barrel at his little tin shed in the Adelaide Hills are testament to that. He sells everything he makes – and rides skateboards and spins records in between.

WBM Magazine Description:

WBM – Australia’s Wine Business Magazine, was launched in April 2005 and was quickly embraced by a wine community crying out for original, relevant information. The monthly magazine, the only one dedicated to the wine business, covers winemaking, viticulture, finance and marketing and includes 100 wine reviews by Tyson Stelzer and Mike Bennie. One of the world’s most respected wine industry publications, WBM is read by 18,000 people including key decision makers such as winemakers, CEOs, marketers, viticulturists, brand ambassadors, sommeliers, retailers and restaurateurs.

Our cult e-bulletin The Week That Was stops the Australian wine community every Friday afternoon with its original content, breaking news, gossip and a big dose of irreverence, while our website WBMonline.com.au is the home of breaking wine news.

WBM has pushed the boundaries over the past nine years by focusing on innovation and no-holds-barred commentary, going in to bat for the industry at every opportunity and building loyalty with readers. In February 2012 UK research company Wine Intelligence named the Editor, Anthony Madigan, in an exclusive list of 30 wine industry leaders from around the world who had made “a significant contribution to the global wine business over the past decade”. The judges said: “Anthony produces brilliant, entertaining writing on the subject of wine as only a true Australian can.” This standard of writing along with beautiful images and design underpins every issue of this world-class magazine.
