Along with flavours of raspberry, blackcurrant and a zesty acidity, this has a little vermouth-like snap to it. Great aperitivo wine that can be chilled if you like.

Muto Tinta Barroca 2022

Fleshy, pleasing fruits sink with a dab of crumbly tannins and fresh acidity. This smells juicy and clean, probably because the grapes were destemmed and fermented entirely in stainless. Feels like a pasta wine – ricotta and tomato pasta!!! Need a recipe? The Internet is your friend.

Orbis Nero d'Avola 2024

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

This vintage is from the Bower Ridge vineyard in the Hills and pours with power. Notes are peach fuzz, flint, nectarine and some oaky depth that gives everything a kernel of spice. Great Chardonnay is hard to beat.

Paralian Chardonnay 2024

Parley Love Supreme Rose 2024

Parley Midnight Disco Pet Nat 2022

Unashamedly rich thanks to some time in new and old oak, and 11 months on lees. Think cashew meal and sublime stone fruits in an almost syrupy texture that will glide down and fill your soul with sunny flavours.

Sven Joschke La Justine Chardonnay 2024

Dark rich black and red currants with lots of green, vegie edges. Tannins are raspy and there’s a leafy, spicy edge to the wine. Cabernet Franc is a varietal we've been going on about for years, and this Somos is just another bottle that justifies our love.

Somos Cabernet Franc 2024

Ripe and textural with honeycomb and yellow melon notes, and an oxidative edge. It’s marching to a LoFi beat, but there’s a lot of glide so don’t hesitate if you’re branching out, this is friendly. Suavy B and Pinot Gris drinkers dive in!

Oria-Riff Old Vine Semillon 2024

Aside from GSM, there’s also a smidge of Carignan in here to add just a smidge of weight and depth to all the herby stewed plums and give those tannins an ever more rugged edge. A great BBQ wine, and the kind you save for a chilly evening.

Grant Nash GSM 2023

From a fourth generation family in the Hills who really get the best out of this single vineyard fruit by fermenting with a portion of whole bunch. That means a sappy edge to all the light berries that are rinsed clean with some fressssh acidity.

Golding Ombre Gamay 2023

Good Intentions Chardonnay 2024

Flowers and delicate fruits with pretty edges of delicate Moroccan spices. Delicious modern Grenache that’s a total smash with lamb tagine, or a trip to your local falafel joint.

Ambling Selicks Hill Grenache 2024

Leans right into the delicious texture and savoury spice we all love with this Austrian variety, but with a local, LoFi notes – oxidative edges – in its repertoire.

Eleven Sons Oceanic Feeling No. 2 Gruner Vetliner 2023

Everyone’s a DJ these days, but here’s one who doesn’t prattle on about their glory days, which is refreshing. Speaking of refreshing, this drinks with cut stone fruit and melon flavours and comes through with a fresh line of acidity and some mealy chew. Yum.

Paisley DJ Deadly Chardonnay 2023

Lemon, lime and bitters with a perfect garnish of sweet florals and some textured weight. Love this wine so much. Perfect with frozen dumplings and packet ramen or a night on Little Bourke Street.

Max & Me Woodcarvers VIneyard Riesling 2023

Vandenberg Ari Gold Chardonnay 2023

From one of Australia’s favourite winemakers. You should expect goodness from any Pannell wine because Steve and his team deliver! Field Street has spicy flavours layered over deep fruits and curly tannins that seem to lengthen the experience.

SC Pannel Field Street Shiraz 2022

Flavour favours the bold wines? That’s not how it goes, but this goes down, right down with juicy blues fruits and sarsparilla flavours stirring with sandy tannins and something like blood orange. Add friends and a grill for perfection.

SC Pannell Dead End Tempranillo 2022

Pannell nails to the cheerful flavours – dark fruits, salinity and charcuterie aromatics, but Merrivale is distinguished by the earthy tannins which remind us of dust thrown up by a car, flying across a dirt road. That might sound odd, but it fits, and the wine(making) is amazing.
