Brown Brothers Takes Out People’s Choice And Top Scores At The 2026 Halliday Wine Companion Awards

Brown Brothers Winery has proudly won the People’s Choice Award at the 2026 Halliday Wine Companion Awards, voted by over 10,000 consumers—an incredible show of support from wine lovers.

Georgia Beavis, Brown Brothers Multi-Venue Operations Manager, said: “The People’s Choice win just gives us more energy to keep creating and surprising our guests with more reasons to return to our beautiful part of the world.”

This consumer-driven accolade comes alongside an exceptional performance in the 2026 Halliday Wine Companion Awards, with eight wines scoring over 90 points and the entire Patricia range achieving 95 points or above.

The Patricia range represents the pinnacle of Brown Brothers’ portfolio, and a legacy of over 136 years in winemaking excellence. Named after Patricia Brown, a pivotal figure in the Brown family's history and my Nana, these wines are crafted with meticulous attention to detail and a commitment to quality,” says Katherine Brown, fourth-generation family member and Luxury Portfolio Manager.

Renowned for their balance, depth, and finesse, the Patricia wines epitomise the artistry and dedication that define Brown Brothers' winemaking philosophy. “We are humbled by these recognitions, a testament to our winemaking and viticulture teams and the practices we have in place at Brown Brothers,” Katherine adds.
