Crittendon Estate Gepetto Chardonnay 2023

Grown in one of our favourite Yarra Valley subregions, Dixons Creek, this is a cool climate-styled Shiraz that’s full of true-to-style dark fruits like violets and dark plums, whilst still being easy-drinking in the Bistro way – just like that inspiring Syrah we loved in the Rhône Valley too long ago.

BISTRO Shiraz 2022

Bright and crunchy with cherry pips, cranberry and drops of boysenberry that shine through along with some trademark Sangiovese dusty tannin, and crispy acidity

Carlotta Sangiovese 2023

La Violetta Patio Nat Pet Nat Riesling + Muscat 2024

Alpino Prosecco Glera NV

Sven Joschke La Eleanor Sangiovese 2024

La Prova Fiano 2023

Chrismont La zona Riesling 2022

Oily citrus with lots of bitter lemon and a smidge of hay seed, with fresh acidity that strikes the refreshing chord like... Chopin play a C Major, but with just a little masteral flare – mineral essence that adds to the dryness.

Latitude 32 Casurina Single Block Semillon 2023

Soumah – South of Maroondah so this wine’s all about place and optimising the conditions to come up with something that speaks for the year, with just a little bit of the winemakers’ inflection. Marzemino is traditionally a Trentino grape that’s robust and full of big, dark fruits, some lovely savoury tones, and chalky tannins. This nails that, but gives just a little Yarra brightness and approachability.

Soumah Single Vineyard Marzemino 2023

Fruits are sourced from the King Valley and Strathbogie Ranges, and carry plenty of slightly darker-for-Pinot flavours, while retaining buoyant and brisk acidity and a little minty fresh alpine-y edge. This is all value and leaves you a little to think about if you want to let your thoughts linger or drift.

Skye Ridge Pinot Noir 2022

A local grown alternative for lovers of Moscato that’s full of rose petals and nectarine, with a little sweetness. Perfect for summer. You should drink this in the park, in your bare feet and while wearing sunscreen. It’s clean, refreshing, spritzy and yum.

Soumah Brachetto Frizzante NV

Fits perfectly in your tumbler or carafe and suits your table cloth, and if you drink it on Nonna’s plastic-covered couch, you can theoretically spill without staining, but don't because it’s delicious! Also, she'll never forgive you. Has plenty of bright acidity and crunchy red fruits that will even make pizza better.

Soumah Nebbiolo Barbera 2023

One of our most inviting wines for Bordeaux and Syrah/Cabernet lovers. This is heaven at a BBQ, and has that moreish, sleek oak polish 99% of wine drinkers absolutely crave. Pure silk; but with tobacco and some plummy richness (thanks Malbec), which bulks up all the bright blueberries.

Eck Wines Pohlmans Creek Rouge Cuvee Cab Malbec Merlot 2022

Semi carbonic and fermented half whole bunch. There's nothing country club about this Pinot and in the glass you get that personality through light raspberry leaf, herbs and a fleshy, vermouth vibe that makes for just a little, bitter snap.

Triffids Pinot Noir 2023

Some of our favourite Grenaches have very delicate Turkish Delight and milk chocolate notes that somehow fit perfectly amongst all the jubey raspberry and pepper. Light in style yes, but heavy on character.

Alessandro Stefani La Vignola Sangiovese 2022

Mobo Vino The Colomcat Pet Nat Colombard Muscat 2023

This is another multi-generational banger that'll suit every family member at the lunch/dinner table, especially if the BBQs on and your best griller has the tongues. We love it for the chewy tannins and generosity of the fruit. It also just feels exactly like a McLaren Vale Grenache blend should, whilst still being original, and creative.

Paralian Blewitt Springs Grenache Shiraz 2023

Juicy like ribena but without all the sugar, and with a lot more going on, like a little oak derived tannin that adds some drive and means it can hang with a roast girello, or your daily slices of asiago cheese – yes, that reads daily. Maybe we'll call it the ribenix cube.
