Going to an Australian wine tasting, could use some suggestions.

In a week I'm gonna attend Australian wine tasting for the company I work for but I like to do some preliminary work, so I don't have to go to every table and ask the same questions; my company's look for wines that are at least sustainable, great designs/labels and have no importer already (since I'm not in the US, you can just ignore that last one). That is partly the reason I'm attending, the other reason is just to learn something about Australian wine.

I barely know anyone on the list, except of course big players as Leeuwin Estate, Penfold's, others like Penley Estate, Wirra Wirram, Brash Higgins... and of course stuff like Yellow Tail, 19 crimes etc. that we'll just ignore.

Do you recognise some of the other producers, or; are there any of these you would recommend to check out, even if they don't fit in with my company's philosophy?
