About
The Winery Engineering Association (WEA) is for winery engineers, winemakers, operators and suppliers. 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.
