Halliday magazine issue 57

Notes from the editor:

If you have a pandemic-induced travel itch to scratch, this issue is packed full of inspiration.

Forget the great wine regions of the world – for now. As this edition confirms, we have a vast array of enticing wine destinations right here on our doorstep. Better still, so many of them are set against jaw-dropping natural wonders. From coast to coast, there are countless wine regions to explore, with endless new discoveries awaiting within your own state’s borders.

However, because we also love a little global wanderlust, we ask four producers to reminisce about their favourite international vintages. These are the experiences that shape growers and makers for life, and we capture some of their most cherished memories. If that doesn’t plant the seed for future overseas adventures, the tasting team’s page just might – this issue they share the wines that always transport them somewhere else, along with their captivating reasons why.

In addition, James Halliday recalls his earliest visits to the Hunter Valley, Erin Larkin takes us on a road trip around Western Australia’s Great Southern, Jane Parkinson focuses on New Zealand’s great wines, and we head to Mexico to learn more about its other agave spirit, mezcal. Plus, Australian F1 superstar Daniel Ricciardo tells us what wine means to him, having just released two new wines he’s made in partnership with St Hugo.

We got a little carried away with the travel theme this edition, but we hope it inspires you to see more of our amazing country, set out on some adventures and uncover those wines that will forever take you back to a time and place, invoking special memories of your own.

Enjoy the read,
