To truly encapsulate the meaning of ‘Best New’, we have recalibrated this award. Best New will no longer refer to wineries submitting to the Companion for the first time, though these will still be identified throughout the pages of this book by the new vine symbol.
Rather, this award celebrates a new winery with newly established vines (seven years’ vine age or younger) or a new winery (no older than five years) making wines with established, owned or sourced fruit.
And, on this premise, we are delighted to acknowledge the following new wineries and their contributions to the Australian wine landscape.
