James Halliday's Top 100 Wines (virtual event)

Join James Halliday and Katie Spain LIVE as they discuss James Halliday's Top 100 for 2020.

This year’s Top 100 will be published in The Weekend Australian on Saturday 14 November and available on the Cellardoor Challenge website.

For the first time wine lovers have an opportunity to be included in the conversation ‘virtually', as James shares his insights about this year’s best wines from across Australia.

This limited, ticketed event will explore the Top 100 wines (white, red, sparkling and champagnes) across vintages, varietals and price points. It will also give you a glimpse into some of Australia’s smaller, family-owned and run wineries that you may not see in major retailers.

There will be time for a Q&A, where James will answer your questions and share his recommendations of what to drink over the festive season. 

We’ll also do a quick demonstration of James’ Top 100 virtual assistant – Juno who has been trained to answer questions about the wines (so you’ll always have the Top 100 handy). You can ask her questions such as "Do you know what the best Cabernet Sauvignon under $30 is"?

To show our support for what's been a challenging year for many local wineries, we're publishing the Top 100 wines with a direct link to them to encourage you to buy direct from the wineries.

We think you’ll find that there’s something in this event for every wine lover, from novice to aficionado, no matter what your budget or taste. 

Hope you'll join us.
