Andrew Caillard is a multi-award-winning Master of Wine, best known as the author of 'The Australian Ark', winner of the André Simon Drinks Award 2024 and a co-founder of Australian wine auction house Langton's. He was also an associate producer of award-winning feature documentaries 'Red Obsession' and 'Blind Ambition', and author of numerous books including several reference editions such as Penfold's 'The Rewards of Patience' (editions III to IX), 'Imagining Coonawarra - The story of Wynns Coonawarra Estate John Riddoch Cabernet Sauvignon', and 'The Essence of Dreams' (the history of the Mornington Peninsula's wine industry). Andrew has personally won numerous awards, including the IWSC Wine Communicator 2025 Trophy and Australian Wine Communicator of the Year in 2024. Ken was born and bred in Brisbane, Queensland. He had a non-trendy, perfectly happy childhood, in a family convinced alcohol meant instant condemnation to Hades. But a break fishing on the Great Barrier Reef, and some good wine, started a serious obsession that eventually took over. It did not stop Ken being chastised later for drinking Pol champagne, disgusted he'd drink anything made by a Cambodian dictator. Now, Ken mostly writes on wine, champagne and spirits for various newspapers, magazines and books, but is perhaps best known for his work in The Courier Mail. He also has a little sideline writing on cigars, fishing, travel and food. When not writing, fly-fishing for trout in NZ or bonefish on the flats of Cuba, travelling or smoking cigars, he is no doubt following a variety of sporting teams - the occasionally glorious Queensland Reds rugby, the dysfunctional Washington Redskins, the dodgy Arsenal and especially revels in the world restored to its proper axis with the return of the Ashes to their rightful home. Tony is best known for his 10 years as News Corp's National Wine Writer, with weekly columns in major metropolitan mastheads throughout Australia including The Adelaide Advertiser, The Sydney Daily Telegraph and the Melbourne Herald Sun. He continues to write feature articles and columns for all the major Australian wine media publications. Tony has also worked as a restaurant reviewer, section editor, book editor, digital content provider, journalism teacher and was named Wine Communicators of Australia 2018 Legend of the Vine (SA).
