We were thrilled to see the calibre of wines produced in our beautiful region recognised in the 2022 Halliday Wine Companion Awards, with awards from six categories going to Yarra Valley producers.
Yarra Yering was the star of the show, winning FOUR awards in total, including Winery of the Year, Wine of the Year, Top Rated Cabernet Sauvignon and Top Rated Cabernet & Family.
Oakridge Wines tied for Top Rated Chardonnay with Penfolds and Leeuwin Estate, as well as shortlisted for Winery of the Year.
The shortlists for top-rated wines also included Hoddles Creek Estate, De Bortoli, Mount Mary, Dominique Portet, Serrat, Denton, Helen’s Hill Estate, Dappled Wines, Seville Estate, Medhurst, Gembrook Hill, Mandala, Rouleur Wine Co. and Yeringberg. Just to name a few…
An enormous achievement by the Yarra Valley!
