Our Review
Semillon and shiraz have been consistent performers here. Underlying the suitability of these varieties to the region, Briar Ridge has been a model of stability, and has the comfort of substantial estate vineyards from which it is able to select the best grapes. It hasn't hesitated to venture into other regions, either. Andrew Duff took over winemaking duties from Alex Beckett in '23 and has his sights set on exploring varieties suitable for the site with a holistic approach to farming at the core. -JAMES HALLIDAY
