James Halliday Australian Wine Companion 2014
A respected wine critic and vigneron, James Halliday is an unmatched authority on every aspect of the wine industry and can be compared to the likes of Hugh Johnson, Robert Parker, and Jancis Robinson. His winemaking has led him to sojourns in Bordeaux and Burgundy, and he has had a long career as an international wine judge. In 1995, he received the Australian wine industry’s ultimate accolade, the Maurice O’Shea Award, and in 2010 he was made a Member of the Order of Australia, an honor system that recognizes outstanding achievement and service.
