the ORIGINAL ANGUS

After completing university, Hamish moved to Australia’s Northern Territory to muster cattle at remote stock camps. Hanging up his stockman boots, he began working for a small winery in Victoria – this formed the basis of his winemaking career and is why he’s so fond of Central Victorian grapes.

ANGUS THE BULL’S CREATOR, HAMISH MACGOWAN, IS NO STRANGER TO WINEMAKING... OR BULLS.

Not one to stand still, Hamish relocated to Europe. He worked for a leading UK wine merchant, then as a winemaker in Bordeaux, followed by his most challenging experience where he ran a winery in Moldova, part of the former Soviet Union. After a while, Australia beckoned again.

Back home he worked in Winemaker and Export Manager roles, but an idea was forming in his mind that he had to pursue – the idea to create the perfect wine to pair with beef.

In 2003 he began the Aberdeen Wine Company and the rest, as they say, is history.
