Meet our winery members: Cooper Burns is a winemaking partnership of Mark Cooper and Russell Burns, dedicated to producing tiny amounts of handcrafted, small batch, artisan wines from the Barossa Valley. They specialise in riesling, chardonnay, grenache, shiraz, and mataro.
Meet our winery members: @JacobsCreekANZ is one of the largest-selling brands in the world. In the words of James Halliday, the global success of the range has had the effect of "prejudicing many critics and wine writers who sometimes fail to objectively look behind the label."
Meet our winery members: Gala Estate's vineyard is situated on a 4000ha sheep station in Tasmania. Headed by the Greenhill family, who have been working the land for over 200 years, Gala Estate particularly pride themselves on their premium pinot noir.
Meet our winery members: @StHugoWines is the perfect place for an all-encompassing winery experience. Get comfortable at the lounge and be guided through a flight of wines, wander through the vineyards, or go all out with a degustation menu at the restaurant.
Meet our winery members: Grounded Cru has quickly built a reputation for producing premium wines in two of Australia’s great growing regions, McLaren Vale and the Adelaide Hills. Winemakers Geoff Thompson and Matt Jackman are the epitome of their name, "Grounded Cru."

Meet our winery members: @McHenryHohnen was created when the McHenry and Hohnen families, both of whom had long histories of winemaking in Margaret River, joined forces in 2004. Their philosophy is to create wine low environmental impact and minimal intervention.

Some Easter reading in the new Halliday Wine Comp. magazine, including a great story by my friend and colleague, Lisa Cardelli, on Brett. I always remember a European wine judge telling me he hated judging with Australians because they were so negative about Brett. Read on . . .
@winecompanion That Logan Ridge of Tears Riesling is superb
So proud to be working with Rachel on the Advisory Board of Australian Women In Wine. She needs to be heard . . . Nearly half of Australia's wine graduates are women. Why are so few winemakers? 9news.com.au/national/women…
@CBMattinson @winecompanion Good stuff Campbell, thank you for the reply 👌
@PacificPonies @winecompanion Hi Mark. A variety of reasons. I cellared wine for 25+ years so I appreciate all the joys and pitfalls of cellaring. A few years ago I had financial cause to liquidate and I've not since restocked because truth is, my wine taste has moved towards fresher and fresher.
Closing the Halliday 2025 Wine Companion tasting season in style this morning with a tasting of Castagna wines, Beechworth, with Julian Castagna. Some superb wines and to finish a tasty Castagna bianco vermouth . . . #winecompanion
A productive and enjoyable few days in the King Valley and Beechworth for the Halliday @winecompanion with Giaconda, Savaterre, Sorrenberg, the always entertaining Fred and Joel Pizzini & the ultra hospitable Del Zotto clan - with magnificent accom at their new Homestead.
Congratulations to Tom Kline, who wrote the winning article for the Best Published Feature Article or Wine Column. 👏👏 Tom’s article ‘Regions on the Rise’, published in Halliday Wine Companion heroed the interaction between people and place across 4 very different wine areas.
So it’s adios México. It was a blast while it lasted…
@mullinevintners were founded in 2018, and in a short time have garnered great acclaim. From winning the Geelong Region trophy at the Australian Pinot Noir Challenge 2023, to being included in this year's @winecompanion Top 100 list, this winery's aims and wines are sky high🍇🍷
We are thrilled to announce that Montalto has been selected by Halliday @winecompanion Chief Editor Campbell Mattinson (@CBMattinson) as one of The Top 100 Wineries for 2023! montalto.com.au/blogs/news/202…
