Winemaker Adam Richardson

A native of Western Australia, Adam Richardson has been making wine professionally since 1995, both in Australia and California. In addition to creating his own A.T. Richardson Wines brand, Adam is the International Winemaker for a major California-based wine company. In this role, Adam visits and produces wines from almost every major wine appellation around the world, yet he most highly regards the wines from the Grampians region of his native Australia.

Prior to winemaking, Adam was an aviator in the Royal Australian Navy. But ten years and many glasses of wine later, he jumped ship to begin his second career as a winemaker. When he’s not making wine, he is in the mountains with his wife Eva and his dog Ella, skiing, climbing, or barrelling down ‘single tracks’ on mountain bikes.
