The 2025 Halliday Top 100 Wineries celebrates the best producers in Australia right now. Below is the list of wineries ranked from 26 to 50 from across Australia.  

Each of the below producers could have comfortably found place in the top 25. An incredibly diverse list of names, from unstoppable Tasmanian powerhouses Chatto, Pooley Wines and Stefano Lubiana to the Barossa's Agricola Vintners and Alkina – the former a newcomer to the Top 100. This is a celebration of both the new and old guard.  

If McLaren Vale needed further endorsement (which it doesn’t), the names below certainly cement the region's position as a premium producer of prized Aussie grenache and textural whites. Bondar Wines, S.C. Pannell, Aphelion Wine, Bekkers and MMAD are littered within this segment, as they deserve to be.

You’ll also find some true classics, names that have been loved for decades but are as celebrated now as ever before: Wantirna Estate, Jasper Hill, Gembrook Hill, Crawford River Wines, Sorrenberg... There is nostalgia here, and a reckoning that Victoria is still producing a bounty of iconic and impressive wines. Here, too, we celebrate the Coonawarra, Barossa and Clare Valley.
