The Halliday Wine Companion has just announced its Top 100 Wines for 2024. This year’s compilation, showcasing a diverse array of Australian wines, is presented by Sense of Taste, a leading retailer known for its extensive selection of fine wines.
The process involved the Halliday Tasting Team, consisting of experts Dave Brookes, Jane Faulkner, Jeni Port, Marcus Ellis, Mike Bennie, Philip Rich, Shanteh Wale, and Toni Paterson MW, who dedicated themselves to selecting the very best from the tasting season. Their endeavours focus on celebrating Australian wine’s diversity and ensuring the selected wines’ availability and affordability.
The list features a comprehensive range of categories including Australian sparkling, white wines priced under $40 and over $40, red wines under $50 and over $50, and the Taster’s Pick—a selection where each taster nominates their favourite wine of the year.
Given the forecast is between 27 and 28 degrees all week in Adelaide, we thought we’d share the Top White Wines under $40. The full list is available in the Halliday website (link below).
