"Izway Wines is the venture of business partners Craig Isbel and Brian Conway, both of whom have significant Australian and international wine industry experience. It is a virtual winery, purchasing small quantities of grenache from 80-year-old vines in Greenock, mourvedre from 30-year-old vines in Gomersal, and shiraz from 50-year-old vines in Ebenezer.
