Respected wine critic and vigneron James Halliday has a career that spans over 40
years, but he is most widely known for his witty and informative writing about wine.
As one of the founders of Brokenwood in the Lower Hunter Valley region of New South
Wales, and thereafter founder of Coldstream Hills in the Yarra Valley, Victoria,
James is an unmatched authority on every aspect of the wine industry, from the planting
and pruning of vines through to the creation and marketing of the finished product.
His winemaking has led him to sojourns in Bordeaux and Burgundy, and he is constantly
in demand as a wine judge in Australia and overseas.
James has contributed to more than 56 books on wine since he began writing in 1979.
His books have been translated into Japanese, French, German, Danish and Icelandic,
and have been published in the UK, the US and Australia. He is also the author ofJames Halliday's Wine Atlas of Australia and The Australian Wine Encyclopedia.
James is constantly on the go, tasting wine, judging wine, writing about wine, making
wine, drinking wine ... and a lot of this material makes its way on to the site
as a news story, article or 'what I'm drinking' tasting note.
