Grown at 400m above sea level over 26 hectares that are surrounded by olive groves. Talk about an Italian vision of perfection. Tastes beautiful, like; cherry skins, deep red fruits and scrub land.

San Giorgio Rosso di Montalcino 2020

Time on the Bellarine is always a pleasure. Indented Head packages all the raw earth and maritime vibes we love. You’ll get a helping of savoury earthiness and some smoky oak tangled up in cherries and dripping plum juiciness.

Indented Head Pinot Noir 2024

Some toast and plenty of character, including salinity and crispiness. Looks brilliant and is very generous for the price, with all its balance – acidity, stone fruit flavours, and oak spice flow harmoniously.

Lange Estate Providence Road Chardonnay 2023

Cooling green bay leaf and impressions of sweet plum and black liquorice makes for flowy drinking. Tannins are good and grippy, and they add a nudge of warmth on the end.

Millon Estate The Impressionist Shiraz 2022

Flow and glide. Like watching one of those Byron Bay longboarders gracefully carve a wave. Slashes here throw flavoursome white florals, peach fuzz, earthy spices and a savoury finish. I think my Insta feed has infiltrated my work brain.

Even Keel Heathcote Shiraz 2022

Even Keel Pinot Gris 2024

Lunch-style claret with sweeps of tannin and strokes of freshening herbs on a canvas of boysenberry, mulberry and cassis. Oh no, I've been looking at Ab-ex paintings again. Apologies, but it is beautiful.

In Reverie Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2021

In Clueless, Cher is walking past a fountain when she arrives at her “I love Josh” epiphany. Upon sampling this rosé by a different Josh we love, we imagine a fountain of rosé made spouting a melange of grapes and brimming with crisp red berries and feathery tannins.

Joshua Cooper Regional Series Rose 2024

Clean and plump blackcurrants and autumnal leaves. If you’re grilling tonight, don’t be afraid to pour just a tablespoon into the pan to release all that fond and get a wine reduction going. Yum.

2024 Gentle Giant Cabernet Sauvignon

Unoaked and sweetly fruited. It’s an inviting Shiraz that could even do with a chill if you want to dial up the juiciness.

2024 Gentle Giant Shiraz

Berries and cherries with sarsparilla and soft, cushy tannins. We love Logan wines for their accessibility and deliciousness. This has both of those factors in spades, but there are layers of depth too.

Logan Weemala Tempranillo 2023

Off-dry means a rich hue to all the sweet lime juices and pithy chalk at the core of this Rheingau. It’s an amazing value-pick that you'll find yourself buying on repeat, you just need to take that first sip. Cheers.

Breuer Mehrlein Lundeen Venture Riesling 2023

You’re going to need something tasty for your Sam Neill marathon. Grab an armful of Aotearoa IPAs, they’re full of Nelson Sauvin hops which bring out plenty of fruity flavours and a crisp grassy end.

Love Shack Aotearoa IPA 375ml

Cool Australian flavours like stewed Davidson plum, salt bush and a green herbs over a base of olive tapenade and cassis. Clean and savoury but very well balanced and a must for any upcoming BBQ.

Sutton Grange Fairbank Syrah 2021

Super fresh, clean, and golden. Be cautious who you share a 10-pack with, you might find yourself enduring exaggerated and meandering tales of sporting ‘triumphs’. Don’t worry though, the beer is crispy fresh, delicious and pours a lovely colour which you can distract yourself with.

Love Shack Draught 375ml

Pasqua Sangiovese 2023

Cool, sunny day southern Italy vibes complete with lifted aromatics, sweet nutty spices and some stylistically typical tannins that come through a little bricky. All those layers are wrapped in boysenberries and cherries. Perfect in a carafe between you and the last slice of pizza, while supporting your favourite Italian football (soccer) team.

Carlotta Rosso 2024

A real life super wine that’s lovely and ripe, but sustains a lot of cool climate tension – depth. Expect plenty of minerality and a crisp finish that gives you slivers of grapefruit and citrus in a bright package that are breathtaking now, but will become more velvety with age.

Provenance Henty Chardonnay 2022

Brilliant winemakers. Fermented in amphora and oak and pouring with toasted brazil nut, lemon balm and a concentration, all of which will have you eyeing another glass before your done with your current one. Jump on in Chardy drinkers.

Dormilona Chenin Blanc 2024

Another reason to fall for Lambert. Get ready for briney olive tapenade, peppery meats, and a pliable tannin that never distracts you from all the blue fruits and boysenberry. A fantastic gifting wine and Shiraz for all if there ever was one.
