Number 62 in the Halliday Wine Companion's Top 100 Wineries 2024

 We are honoured to have been listed at number 62 in the Halliday Wine Companion Top 100 Wineries for 2024 alongside the country's best producers.

"The Jones family founded (the first vines were planted in 1976), owned and ran Dalwhinnie in a cool, elevated site in Victoria’s Pyrenees for over 25 years, before the baton was passed to the Fogarty family and their significant resources. David Jones took over the estate in 1994 from his father, growing the vineyard from 6ha to 20, including planting select blocks with distinctive geological and aspect properties to make discrete cuvées. The site is a series of rippling hillsides planted to shiraz, cabernet sauvignon and chardonnay. Today, the fruit is in the hands of Julian Langworthy, who heads up the group’s winemaking. Julian is based in Margaret River, leading Deep Woods Estate. It’s a long way from the Pyrenees, but the wines emerging from Dalwhinnie shows just how little tyranny there is in that distance. The latest submissions from the Dalwhinnie vineyard all secured gold-medal ratings, with three of the six wines scoring 97 points, and it feels like they’re just getting started."

Congratulations to all of the wineries listed in the Top 100 this year.
