Beelgara Estate joins the elite of premium Australian Winemakers

Beelgara Estate is one of the oldest wineries in the Riverina grape growing district of Australia, having been established in 1930.

Being a top twenty Australian winery, Beelgara has established an enviable reputation amongst industry analysts, having just recorded three consecutive years of incremental profit growth with a forth year projected at a 10% increase.

One of Australia’s leading wine writers, James Halliday, has just awarded Beelgara a five star winery rating in the 2012 edition of his Australian Wine Companion, which effectively ranks Beelgara amongst the elite of Australian winemakers.

Rod Hooper, Beelgara’s chief winemaker has commented, “we are immensely proud of our elevation to a five star rating from James and it is a wonderful endorsement of the quality of our wines and a just reward for all our hard work over recent years”. Two of Beelgara’s most awarded red wines achieved 94 points, which is an amazingly high score and ranks them amongst some of the best reds in Australia.

Allison Payne, Beelgara’s CFO has remarked, “this most recent award has crowned what has been another amazing year for us. We are now shoulder to shoulder with some of the most premium and profitable wineries in Australia”.

Beelgara has just reported a circa $2.1 million EBITDA profit for the 2011 year, eclipsing the record profit in 2010.
