Angullong
Angullong is a highly awarded winemaker in the Orange Region, receiving a 5-star rating from the prestigious Halliday Wine Companion. The Crossing family acquired the property in 1950 and expanded their rural operations from farming sheep and cattle to growing grapes in 1998, with one of the most diverse plantings of alternative varieties. The region's high elevation allows for a long, cool ripening period, resulting in natural acidity that complements the elegant fruit flavors. Angullong's vineyards are located on the fertile southern slopes of Orange, near the ancient volcano Mount Canobolas.

Boydell's
Established in 2016 by Daniel and Jane Maroulis along with their 4 daughters, Boydell’s farm and vineyard are off the wine trail, along the Allyn River at East Gresford at the foothills of the Barrington Tops. The property was settled in 1826 by Welshman Charles Boydell who grew mostly grapes and tobacco on the rich, fertile soil. Vines were replanted on the property in 1997 and consistently produce some of the best fruit in the Hunter. Boydell’s work closely with renowned wine maker Liz Silkman, whose skills have earned her the enviable title of Halliday’s Winemaker of the Year, but more importantly shares Boydell’s values and uncompromising standards.
