Margan Wines
“We are over the moon with the results and so excited about our current line-up of wines as they are true expressions of their terroir and variety. This recognition is testament to our 100 hectares of distinguished vineyards and to our winemaking. We have had a sharp focus over the last ten years on our viticulture, including grafting over to better clones, improving canopy management and upgrading our Sustainable Farming practices. In the winery we have been experimenting with several different techniques which reinforce the distinctive qualities of each of our single vineyard blocks. In addition, we work hard to ensure our wines maintain freshness and reflect the outstanding quality of our grapes and the excellent vintages we have recently been gifted.”

It is awards season in Australia right now and we are having a great month here at Margan.
Most recent was our Hunter Valley Wine Show where we were one of the top producers in the region with one trophy, five gold, four silver and seven bronze medals. Several of those golds just missed trophies and the Rose’ was top of class.
The Sydney Royal Wine Show also yielded three silver and seven bronze.
James Halliday Wine Companion 2020 again gave us 5 stars and resulted in eight wines over 94 points.
Additional to that, Margan Restaurant is featured in Gourmet Traveller 2020 Top Restaurants as a recommended Wine Country Restaurant (only two for the Hunter Valley and in fact, NSW). We also have our invite to the upcoming Good Food Guide Awards so hopefully that means we will again be awarded a One Chef Hat.
