Wine Week 135: We rate them, and so does Halliday.
It’s the one book that serious Aussie wine geeks look forward to every year: The James Halliday Australian Wine Companion. The 2010 edition has hit the bookshelves and we’ve had a quick glance to see what Australia’s most renowned wine critic has given top marks to that we’re also fans of. So as well as giving James’ book a look, we check out the Brown Brothers Patricia Noble Riesling and the Teusner Joshua, two wines/wineries that fall into the ‘mutual admiration’ category.
This week’s recommendations are:
- James Halliday’s Australian Wine Companion 2010 ($30-35)
- Brown Brothers Patricia Noble Riesling 2006 ($30-35)
- Teusner Joshua 2007 ($20-$25)

Ok I got to ask – did you mis-spell Jame’s last name on the “lower third” on purpose?

I’m a big fan of Teusner’s GSMs also–love both the Joshua & the Avatar. I found mine at the Grateful Palate warehouse sales but not that they’ve moved, I haven’t seen that wine around here.
