The 2026 Honour Roll

GOLD MEDAL  |  Loxton Cabernet Sauvignon

Judges described this "grown-up" red as having a tangy cherry and blueberry profile with a touch of cacao and a satisfying finish. Noted as a premier pairing for smoked meats and Sunday roasts.

GOLD MEDAL  |  Loxton Sparkling Brut

A celebration-ready sparkling wine lauded for its delicate floral notes and refreshing acidity. Judges highlighted its "well-rounded" character and recommended it as a natural partner to seafood.

BRONZE MEDAL  |  Loxton Semillon Chardonnay

A classic varietal blend featuring peach and nectarine notes with a crisp pink apple finish.

BRONZE MEDAL  |  Loxton Moscato Rosé

An appealing sparkling rosé with minty, pink grapefruit and red berry notes — ideal alongside fresh fruit desserts.

COMMENDED  |  Loxton Sauvignon Blanc

Recognised for its vibrant citrus finish and distinctive smoky green fruit aromas.

Since the beginning, Loxton has delivered the finest quality wines that bridge the gap between traditional winemaking and the alcohol-free lifestyle. A 100% medal success rate in the 2026 competition reinforces Loxton's standing as a leader in both the Australian and international markets.

“To have every single entry receive a medal this year — including two Golds — is a monumental achievement for the team. Maintaining this level of excellence for three years straight proves that Loxton isn’t just a choice for moderation; it’s a choice for premium quality.”
