Pip describes her winemaking job as being her dream job. She used to be an accountant/management consultant. That was not her dream job.
After working vintages in New Zealand and the United States and completing her Postgraduate Diploma at Lincoln, Pip joined Palliser in 2004.
Pip works alongside Allan in the winemaking process but also has the responsibility of being the Environmental Manager. She was the driver behind Palliser being the first winery in the world to be CEMARS certified.
In her spare time Pip enjoys hanging out with her two small children and time permitting, playing sport or walking the naughtiest dog in town – time isn’t often permitting.
