MCF-USA would like to thank the following friends and sponsors for their continued support of our organization:
At Aussie Beef & Lamb, our goal is to help home cooks and food professionals in America achieve success with Australian red meat. It starts with education about Australia’s unique pasture-based production practices and how Aussie family farms contribute to delivering environmentally sustainable and high-quality products to the world.
We can provide culinary support, through product development and menu ideation. When Aussie meat hits the menu or the meat case, we are there with customized marketing support to full creative activations.
All the while, our social media, and consumer outreach help build a hunger for Aussie beef, lamb and goat.

JEAN LUC COLOMBO
Jean-Luc Colombo’s dedication to fine food and wine took root early and came from his mother, a talented chef in Marseille.
His wife Anne, also an oenologist, and he created the “Centre of Oenology of Côtes du Rhône” in Cornas in 1984. They have since then been the consulting winemakers for some of the best domains in the Rhône Valley, Provence and Bordeaux.
Jean-Luc’s fulfillment of a childhood dream came with his and Anne’s purchase of his first vineyard. The small plot of old vines planted on a granite hillside overlooking the village of Cornas saw its first vintage of Cornas “Les Ruchets” released in 1987. It was a great success, taking the French wine world by storm, becaming the first in a long series of vintages of what is universally regarded as Colombo’s iconic wine.
Jean-Luc and Anne’s love of good food and good wine has been passed down to their daughter Laure. She joined the family domain in 2010. A viticulturist, oenologist and world traveler, she is full of life, and brings fresh energy and her sensitivity to the family estate.
