About

The Winery Engineering Association (WEA) is for winery engineers, winemakers, operators and suppliers. Our mission is to provide a forum for new technologies and processes, to encourage industry best practices and to promote networking.

WEA’s major regular event is WINE ENG, a two-day conference and trade exhibition focused on winery technology, engineering and operations. WINE ENG is now held 2 out of every 3 years, skipping the year of the triennial Australian Wine Industry Technical Conference (AWITC).

For more details on the origins of the WEA, you can read this history written by Geoff Leighton, our Inaugural President.
