Nick O'Leary

Nick O’Leary is one of the rising stars in the Canberra wine district, renowned for his modern styles of Riesling and Shiraz. With more than a decade's experience making wines from his home region, Nick has made a significant impact, winning prestigious awards such as the Stodart Trophy in 2014 and NSW Wine of the Year in both 2014 and 2015. 

Situated in the stunning Hall Valley, just outside the ACT, Nick O’Leary Wines features a modern winemaking facility and a mature 5-hectare vineyard. The focus is on handcrafting Shiraz and Riesling that faithfully reflect the character of the Canberra region.

Nick’s approach is simple yet effective, partnering with excellent vineyards and focusing on Canberra's best varieties. His wines are celebrated for their purity and freshness and have helped push the region into the national spotlight.

Nick O’Leary and his eponymous label promises to be a pacesetter in the Canberra district for many years to come.

"Certainly a young wine talent to watch, Nick O’Leary is quietly going about his Canberra District-centric production with aplomb. He’s hooking up with good vineyards, keeping his winemaking simple to get the best expression of fruit and keen on focussing his attention on Canberra District’s ‘best’ varieties."
