Mr Trescowthick said, “It’s a real honour to be taking on the role of President at such a promising time for our region.

“The current board is made up of a team of smart, engaged people who collectively want to give back to the region, ensure our members have the support they need to thrive and that Adelaide Hills wines continue to grow in renown, locally and across the world.”
