Winery Engineering encompasses the peripheral activities (eg. design, supply, construction and process realisation) that make winemaking possible from grape to glass. The Winery Engineering Association provides a forum for those who engineer the winemaking process and is intended to compliment the existing forums for Winemakers. Full Membership is available only to those directly employed by a winemaking company (including bottling). Associate Membership is available to those employed by companies closely allied to the Wine Industry or those who are not industry based but interested.
