Margaret River Wine Association | 1,495 followers on LinkedIn. Creating value for Margaret River growers and winemakers | The Margaret River Wine Association (MRWA) is the peak body for Margaret River grape growers and winemakers. It was established in the late 1970’s as the Margaret River Grape Growers &amp; Winemakers Association and was incorporated in 1982.

In 1996 the Association registered a geographic boundary for the region and the Margaret River became one of the first three wine regions in Australia to have its boundaries legally defined as a Geographical Indication (GI) by the Australian government.

We are thrilled to have just completed a very successful China Wine Buyers Tour. The 11 delegates, visiting from mainland China as well as Hong Kong, represented businesses from Cathay Pacific , Little Red Book, The Wine Gallery, Winelane trading, Shanghai YuJie Wine Co & more! Our guests were involved in a range of educational Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon masterclasses, discussions around the regional Shiraz style and a seafood dinner to celebrate our SSB & SBS blends. During their 3 days in Margaret River, the guests were hosted on an immersive itinerary, prepared by Liz Mencel , Tony Fletcher , Amanda Whiteland and Grace Pigram , meeting winemakers, experiencing the breathtaking natural beauty and tasting a range of the region's fine wines that we hope to see available in China soon. A massive thank you to all the wineries and their teams that hosted our guests; Fraser Gallop Estate , Wills Domain , McHenry Hohnen , Leeuwin Estate , Lenton Brae and Howard Park Wines , and everyone that showcased their wines. Also a big thank you to Sean at Ovis Creative for translating and capturing their experience, Johnno at Wine for Dudes | Margaret River Wine Tours for keeping our guests safe on the road, Iszaac Webb at Undalup Association for a beautiful Welcome to Country ceremony.
