We're thrilled to announce that voting has opened for our 2025 People's Choice Award. The Halliday People's Choice Award is a celebration of the best winery experience around the country as voted by thousands of wine lovers. The 2025 Halliday People's Choice marks the fourth year of the award.
So, what does the best winery experience mean? Your vote can be based on a standout cellar door, fantastic restaurant, friendly and knowledgable staff, the quality of wines themselves, or anything else you think contributes to an exceptional experience.
Once you cast your vote, you'll automatically go in the draw to win the ultimate People's Choice Award prize pack, valued at over $1900. The 2025 prize pack includes a 2019 Henschke Hill of Grace, rated 99 points by Tasting Team member Dave Brookes, a copy of the 2025 Companion, a Coravin Pivot™ Wine Preservation System, a RIEDEL Wine Friendly Glassware set of six and decanter, and a $500 voucher to spend at The Wine Collective.
