This has tension and a high-toned nose that lifts aromatics into close focus. Full of citrus and some herbs that drive long and lean thanks to all the brisk acidity. LoFi Chardonnay lovers will be in heaven!

Bandicoot Run Ceramic Chardonnay 2023

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

Silky and youthful with a thin stretch of tannin woven in. This is one of the more serious wines in Bertrand’s range and pours with a lot of minerality and some concentrated, deep red fruits.

Yann Bertrand Latignie Beaujolias Villages Gamay 2023

This wine feels alive and comes out ready to party with all its, tart crunchy fruits and brisk and earthy acidity. Yann’s proud of this vintage and put the grapes in concrete only so they could sing their fresh flavours loud and proud!

Yann Bertrand Beaujolais OH ! Gamay 2023

Deliciously tart cherries and some papery tannins. They say taste is subjective, but this posits a compelling argument for the contrary – it’s that delicious. Everyone will (more than likely) love it.

Babche Sangiovese 2024

A blend of white vineyards that gets a short maceration period and comes through with crispy fruits and electric acidity. Picture some waxy lemons and slices of tropical fruits that are so delicate, they’re almost transparent.

Gut Oggau Theodora 2023

If she starts going on about her favourite Sparkling, which was the one she requested, just focus on the gentle sounds of the heavenly bubbles popping in your glass and know that there’s more for you. Tastes like lemon sorbet, but with an almost creamy texture.

The Other Right Bright Young Things Chardonnay Pet Nat 2023

Nashi pear and hints of bready aromas pave the way for the delightfully dry and savoury palate, with more nashi pear, hints of hazelnut and just the right amount of fizz.

Mercer Wines PF Fizz 2023

Plump and juicy Nero d'Avola made from organic fruit and vinified with no added preservatives. Raspberry ripple, dark plum, and a handful of dried Mediterannean herbs along with chalky tannins. Perfect for pizza or pasta night!

Wild Folk Nero d'Avola 2024

Mercer Wines PF Shiraz 2022

Raspberry and light red fruits on the nose. There’s a great oceanic influence here – does anyone not love salty wines? It also looks and smells like watermelon and strawberries, and washes down clean and refreshing. Very yum.

Alessandro Viola Rose Nerello Mascalese Blend 2023

Eleven Sons Oceanic Feeling No. 2 Gruner Vetliner 2023 MAGNUM 1500ml

2024’s growing season made for smaller grape clusters, which meant more concentrated berries and dialled-up skinsy tannins, but (thanks to Niki & Tim’s quality winemaking) there’s still plenty of balance and a glossy, gliding texture that features a smidge of leesy funk.
