Brett Keeping was inducted as a 2026 Hunter Valley Wine Industry Living Legend in recognition of more than 30 years dedicated to vineyard development, grape growing and industry advocacy in the Upper Hunter.
After planning and developing the original Two Rivers vineyard in 1988, Brett played a significant role in the Hunter Valley’s vineyard expansion during the 1990s, overseeing the establishment of more than 160 hectares of vineyards. Over the years, vineyards under his care have supplied numerous Hunter Valley wine companies, while his leadership has helped shape the Upper Hunter wine community through multiple terms as President and Vice President of the Upper Hunter Winemakers Association. Brett has also been a passionate advocate for the industry through his work on climate change studies, critical industry cluster recognition and representation at planning hearings relating to mining impacts on vineyard land.
John Hordern was inducted as a 2026 Hunter Valley Wine Industry Living Legend, recognised for his lifelong contribution to the Upper Hunter wine industry as a grape grower, winemaker and business leader.
Raised in the Upper Hunter, John’s connection to wine began when his father planted Semillon and Shiraz on the family property near Denman in 1968. Following studies at Roseworthy Agricultural College, John established Horseshoe Vineyard as a premium Hunter Valley wine label and built extensive experience through contract winemaking and vineyard operations. In 2000, he helped establish Hunter Wine Services in Muswellbrook. John has also held leadership roles including President of the Upper Hunter Winemakers Association and contributed to regional advisory committees supporting the wine industry.
