History Through Film: Chateau Chunder

In the 1970s Australian wine was not for drinking, as Monty Python put it, but for ‘laying down and avoiding’. But little more than 40 years later, Australian winemaking is leading the world.

Chateau Chunder is both a social history of wine and wine drinking and an in-depth examination of how a small group of enterprising Australian wine makers took on the world…and won, changing the way that wine is made and marketed.

This program is part of our History Through Film series. Come along one Friday of every month for a documentary showcasing the history of our nation.
