Brisbane’s Hellenika wins Australia’s Best Listing of Greek Wines

·

The results of Australia’s Wine List of the Year Awards are in, and Brisbane’s premier dining destination Hellenika at the Calile has been crowned Australia’s Best Listing of Greek Wines.

Now in its 31st year, the awards ceremony was held at the Ovolo Hotel in Woolloomooloo, New South Wales, on the evening of Monday, September 30.

On the night, Melbourne’s Gimlet at Cavendish House was crowned Australia’s Wine List of the Year. In addition to the major trophy, Gimlet picked up some of the night’s other highlight awards, including Best Wine List VIC, Australia’s Best Restaurant Wine List – City, and Sommeliers’ Choice Award.

Australia’s Best Listing of Greek Wines category won by Hellenika was one of four new categories at this year’s awards.

Of this year’s results, Chairman of Judges Peter Forrestal commented, “Never has the scene been more vibrant with a wide range of choices facing consumers; better-educated sommeliers and waiting staff, more thoughtfully curated lists, or more carefully assembled cellars. Nor more delicious wines from a wider range of countries as well as fantastic offerings from Australia. While the density of population means that it is scarcely surprising that the capital cities dominate, wining and dining in country areas has never been better than it is now.”
