Jono co-founded Knowles Brothers Wine in 2015. He assumes the roles of Chief Winemaker, Vineyard Selection, Industry Networking and Collaboration among many other things. His penchant for perfection is his biggest strength and worst weakness when it comes to making and selling wine, which is why his business savvy brothers keep his generous nature in check. When Jono is not pouring his love into wine making, you’ll find him fighting fires or ferrying around his four gorgeous daughters with a bin of grapes in the back of his ute. Jono is generally enthusiastic and interested in many things. He’s industrious and creative, which makes his wines among the best in the Barossa Valley.

Tobi co-founded Knowles Brothers Wine in 2015, initially focusing on the logistics of the operation. Given his Business Management background, he saw the opportunities that would come with formalizing the business. Namely; greater ability to share and develop new wines, better positioning to access exceptional fruit, and more opportunities to host and create unique experiences for the members.  

Tobi’s background involved spending some time working with his American wife Jess at cellar doors in the Barossa, Tobi discovered his talent for entertaining people with his wit and astute perceptivity of the palate. This now places him perfectly to manage the wine club, sales and events for the business. Tobi loves to accommodate guests with his hospitable and light-hearted nature.
