Highlights from Halliday Wine Companion 2022
7 REGIONAL EXPERTS. 9,100 WINES TASTED. RIGOROUS TESTING
The 2022 Halliday Wine Companion, released in August, is an exciting time for Fogarty Wine Group’s wine portfolio. The 2022 edition saw the introduction of a tasting team of seven regional experts, providing connection and specialist knowledge with every region across five states.
Additionally, the larger and more diverse tasting team were more rigorous in tasting then ever before, ensuring benchmarks were consistent with international standards. High scores were attained by our wineries, with Chief Editor Tyson Stelzer explaining: “You will see that we are always generous when praise is due, vigorously seeking out and championing the finest wines in the country. As always, top wines deserve top scores.”
Well said, Tyson!
