About Us
THE ROBSON FAMILY
James & Chrissy Robson
Working in the wine industry is a natural culmination of James Robson’s love of the land, from his previous work as a jackeroo, and his well-honed hospitality skills developed during his time as an Area General Manager for Rydges Hotels and Resorts. These attributes create a great base for running a successful wine business that produces exceptional quality, cool-climate wines.
With James’ leadership of an impressive team, Ross Hill Wines continues to leave a lasting impression with each new vintage of outstanding wines produced. James’ passion for the land and the environment has been a predominant driver for Ross Hill becoming a government accredited carbon neutral operation.
Chrissy Dimmick was brought up in South West Victoria with a strong affiliation with Australia’s bush and beaches. Her first introduction to Ross Hill Wines was driving the tractor during bird netting removal on Valentine’s Day in 1998!
Whilst raising little Robsons, Chrissy graduated with Honours in a Masters of Professional Accounting and is now the company accountant and director of Ross Hill’s 1994 Wine Club.
