Dawson and James

Quality and innovation have always been
the driving forces behind winemakers
Peter Dawson and Tim James.

The two friends met in Adelaide in 1976 when the Australian wine industry was going through tough times. Peter was a
21-year-old science student from Geelong, Victoria, who'd just got his first job in the wine sector as a cellar hand at Thomas Hardy & Sons' inner city Mile End winery, where Tim was the Production Winemaker. Peter and Tim have now collaborated on a project that is as much about personal passion as it is about professionalism: Dawson and James Wines.
