Our Review
Foreign correspondent Philip Williams and his wife, media consultant Carolyn Jack, established their Wallaroo vineyard in 1997. The vineyard is planted to shiraz, cabernet sauvignon and riesling, the latter having had significant success in the Canberra Regional Wine Show. The dominant plantings are shiraz and cabernet sauvignon, and it is apparent from production that a substantial part of the grape harvest is sold. Exports to the UK. -JAMES HALLIDAY
