Finlayson’s – Transitioning To The Next Vintage

Successful succession of Australian family wine businesses to the next generation is a critical issue for the sector, as well as for the individual families involved. Done well, succession can enhance the relationships of parents with their children and take the business to a higher level. Done poorly, it can lead to family break down and business failure.

Each year, Finlaysons and their friends, Australian Grape & Wine and Wine Australia, visit ten leading viticultural regions of Australia to impart their legal and commercial wine industry knowledge to winemakers and grape growers. This year they will endeavour to give some deep insights into success factors associated with “smooth” family wine business succession.

Finlaysons’ Partners, Will Taylor and Nikki Owen, will advise attendees how to go about family wine business succession and of common mistakes that should be avoided. They have done much work in this area over the last three decades.

Wine Australia will report on the current state of the global wine industry and what the world of wine, that the next generation will inherit and operate in, might look like. Australian Grape & Wine will reflect on the industry challenges that the next generation is likely to face and how the Australian wine sector is preparing for them.

Clearly this is extremely important information for family wine businesses of all sizes, as well as grape growing families.

Attend Finlaysons’ Wine Roadshow 30 with a view to “transitioning to the next vintage” as positively and painlessly as possible.
