Today we're joined by two distinguished guests, Travis Shultz, and Jane Ferrari. Travis, a respected local lawyer with a deep-seated passion for fine wines, began his journey in the world of wine as a writer many years ago. Jane, on the other hand, is a celebrated figure in the winemaking industry, with a wealth of knowledge and
experience. 
This episode of our podcast was recorded in the “green room” ahead of the 2024 Winemaker's Masterclass at the Maroochy RSL, an event that combines the love of wine with a noble cause. The event is more than just a masterclass, it's a fundraiser for SunnyKids, a charity that's making a real difference on the Sunshine Coast. 
This year’s event raised over $187,000!
