Just in: 13 standout wines newly rated by the Halliday Tasting Team

There’s nothing more exciting than discovering new Australian wines, but knowing where to look for them, and then, which bottle to choose, can be overwhelming. Below, you’ll find a list of 13 newly released wines (from 11 wineries) that we’ve curated for your drinking pleasure.

Try, for example, the 96-point chardonnay from Brokenwood, or opt for the 95-point pinot noir from Whisson Lake, which Mike Bennie describes as a "beautiful, delicate, haunting wine." If you love wines from the Yarra Valley, you can't go wrong with the "subtle and perfumed" nebbiolo from TarraWarra Estate, or the Reverie Dark Rose from Rongo Wines, of which taster Katrina Butler says, "I can't imagine this bottle lasting very long among friends."

For those after value for money, here you'll find a 96-point syrah viognier from Bubb + Pooley in Tasmania that's $65, or a 93-point chardonnay from Farmer's Leap Wines for just $28. Plus much, much more.
