Halliday Wine Companion has announced its Top 100 Wineries 2024,presented by Sense of Taste. The Halliday Wine Companion Top 100 Wineries is a celebration of the best wineries in Australia, right now.
The list of 100 spans producers from around the country and focuses on the complete portfolio of wines. Each name listed is a true champion of Australian wine.
Five Victorian wineries made the top 10 on the list: Giant Steps in the Yarra Valley, Giaconda at Beechworth, Mount Mary in the Yarra Valley, Oakridge Wines in the Yarra Valley and Yarra Yering in the Yarra Valley.
Marcus Ellis, Halliday Tasting Team member said: “These are wineries that excel in tough years and soar in great ones.”
“They are makers that never settle for good, constantly micro-calibrating to more lucidly express grape, site and season. These are names that are not just synonymous with peerless quality, but also striking character and individuality. These are makers that hold their own on the world stage,” he said.
Yarra Valley’s Giant steps came in at number two on the list, having also been named Winery of the Year and claimed 2025 Pinot Noir of the Year for its 2023 Applejack in the Halliday Wine Companion Awards.
Appearing in the top 10 for the first time is Giaconda from Beechworth. Ranking number three, Giaconda is best known as a producer of world-class chardonnay, although it certainly is not limited to this variety.
Also making its debut in the top 10 is Yarra Yering from the Yarra Valley at number nine.
