The Bibber Wine Community
We are proud to offer this service to the global wine industry. Thanks for choosing to explore this option for your winery.

Choosing Bibber staff for your winery will give you staff that are enthusiastic, committed to the wine industry and eager to learn. You may also learn about practices in other winemaking areas of the world.

The best thing is that the membership is inexpensive and for a good cause. The annual Wine Community membership fee is AUD$100 + GST and this allows you to have as many staff as you need.  The fees you pay fund a Memorial Scholarship in memory of a German Winemaker who died tragically in a road accident while she was working in Australia in 2004.  For more information about this Scholarship please visit the scholarship page.  The funds generated allow a winemaker from Germany to come to Australia to work for the vintage period and soon we hope to also fund an Australian Winemaker to go to Germany.

So what do you get for your $100?

The ‘Bibbers’ spend a few days partying with us before they arrive at the winery. During this time, we organise all of their tax and banking arrangements, introduce them to as many cultural icons as possible (Tim Tams, Meat pies, Coopers, Kangaroos both to eat and pat). We also warn them how rude we are and how their given name will never be used or will morph into something which ends in an ’o’ or a ‘y’.  Occasionally there are times where we get to knock some corners off and modify some attitudes!

We coordinate the Bibber’s arrival, so that they are with us for the week before you need them to start. Then usually on a Friday we organise their transport to you.

When they leave you, we pick up all the pieces, such as forwarding mail, doing their tax returns (through a registered tax agent) and helping them claim their superannuation.
