Our Review
A rock of ages in the Granite Belt, owned by the ever-cheerful and charming Angelo and Mary Puglisi. Ballandean Estate’s cool climate, high altitude and granitic terroir deliver national and international award-winning wines. In ’23, Boxi Zhen joined the team as winemaker, taking the reins from Dylan Rhymer, who had been with the winery for 22 vintages. -JAMES HALLIDAY
