The award recognises high altitude wines that were produced with grapes grown 500 metres above sea level.

The Mittagong-based winery was one of three wineries in the region that received top accolades.

"Overall, it's good for the region, for other Highlands wineries that got top trophies in the show," the Tertini Wines winemaker said.
