“Bruce Tyrrell is one of the greats, and it is our great privilege to induct him into the James Halliday Hall of Fame.”– Halliday 

We are proud to announce the induction of Fourth Generation Bruce Tyrrell into the James Halliday Hall of Fame. The James Halliday Hall of Fame is the highest honour conferred by the Halliday Wine Companion. It recognises those who have made a profound, lifelong contribution to Australian wine, an honour that is undoubtedly well deserved by Bruce, who has dedicated his entire life to the industry.

"Dad has dedicated his life to the Hunter Valley and the Australian wine community. He has always put the greater good of all others above himself and it is great to see him acknowledged for a body of work not matched by many." - Chris Tyrrell 

Equally, his dedication to seeking out and preserving the best vineyard sites in the Hunter Valley has ensured Tyrrell’s viticultural heritage is protected. Bruce's contribution will continue to reverberate throughout the wine industry, both in Australia and around the world, for generations to come.

“You can’t deep-dive Australian wine without paying recognition to Bruce Tyrrell AM. That Australian semillon finds itself on the best shelves both here and abroad is a testament to Bruce’s lifetime personal pursuit to lift the variety’s profile. Bruce is one of the greats.”– Katrina Butler, Halliday

Congratulations Bruce, on this great honour.
