Memorial Scholarships

The Esther Knewitz Memorial Scholarship

Esther was a lovely German girl who died tragically while working harvest in Australia in 2004.  In 2006 Bibber launched a Memorial Scholarship to honour her memory and her many acheivements during her 24 short years.

The scholarship is now offered to both German and Australian applicants wishing to work a harvest period overseas.  The scholarship covers the costs of visa, airfares and insurance.  Please click here for more information.

The Dr. Gilbert Phillips Scholarship is named after the founder of The Wine Society and  offers an outstanding student the opportunity to experience a year’s vintage overseas, upon the completion of their degree.
The Wine Society will cover all major costs of the trip including a Visa, airfares and travellers insurance. The recipient will be paid by the winery they are placed at. It will be enough to live on, but the recipient should be prepared to fund any additional costs themselves.
The travel/working details of the internship will be organised by Bibber International, who are aiding The Wine Society with their services for the purpose of this scholarship. The recipient of the scholarship will be required to give a short speech at a Wine Society event once the internship has been completed.
