Praise from the Judges
Judge Lisa Cardelli (@lisacardelli) called the wine list “meticulously assembled… a load of time, heart and soul have clearly been put into it.” She highlighted its accessibility and depth, noting, “You don’t have to break the bank if you want to drink something a bit older.”
Global Recognition for Excellence
Jonah’s wine list has received Australia’s Three Glass Rating every year since 2012 and Wine Spectator’s Best of Award of Excellence since 2011. Most recently, it was named Australasian Regional Winner for Best Long Wine List 2025 by The World of Fine Wine.
