Thank you Koerner! Full of lively aromatics and flavour-some boysenberry, grenadine and salted plum skin. It’s a complete no-brainer for any holiday get-together so grab as many as you can carry.

Parco Gamay 2024

A touch of blush goes well with a squeeze of strawberry and watermelon and a little spice. There’s red fruit too, so that’s body and shape which is always welcome but things are kept lean with some fresh acidity.

Cloudbreak Nouveau Sparkling NV

Magical Fumé that’s here right in time for summer. Whole bunch pressed and some good rounding in oak. A pairing dream for creamy cheeses and white fish. This will brighten a park session no matter what the weather and what a dance partner.

Carto Wines Fumé Blanc 2022

Well isn’t this a bit fun? Especially with that little extra heft in the fruit that boldens the structure. If orange segments and pink berries give you a refreshing smile, then you should grab a bottle and head to the park. Never mind the weather, you’ll be shining.

Carto Wines PétNat Rosé 2022

Half Cab. Franc, half red-Semillon, here’s an Adelaide Hills bouquet, complete with tasty rose water and juicy forest berries. It’s park juice so drink it barefooted. It’ll also look cute in a selfie with you, and some mates.

Yetti and the Kokonut Project Red Semillon 2022

Gorgeous with punnets of raspberry and plenty of plucked strawberries on show, but with plenty of tangy tannins that are leafy, herby, and wrapped up so nicely. If all that’s not enough, consider some lasting depth too.

Scintilla Mountain Pinot Noir 2023

Well-balanced sweetness. Dark berries and plums that sparkle, or bubble even. Notes are worth journaling because they’re mulberry and a stingy piece of dark chocolate – apparently, I break off too much and need to be ‘monitored’ at family functions when the block comes out. Don’t worry, it’s on my list of things to work through with my therapist.

Gudilly Sparkling Shiraz NV

Offer up glasses of flowing, liquored berries, sweet cherries and some blackcurrant essence tonight to yourself or those lucky enough to be in your (and this bottle’s) company. Soft n plush with enough tannin to keep you engaged, even after the conversation has lulled and everyone’s on Insta.

Gudilly Shiraz 2022

Philosophers say that even in dreams, we create problems because we want something to overcome. I have this recurring dream where, despite pouring from a full 750ml bottle, I can’t fill up my glass with the 150mls I want which means I only ever get to enjoy just a sip of all the black currant cassis and tobacco a wine like this offers.

Gudilly Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Aromatic and easy-drinking that’s one of those you open, pour, drink and forget about. This doesn’t mean it’s ambient, just that it’s agreeable with all the plush red fruits and berries you’ve grown up loving in Pinots. So good with dips and chips. Speaking of… how come people don’t have dip for dinner? Why is it always a snack and why can’t it be a meal?

Gudilly Rose Pinot Noir 2023

In northern Italy, it's often paired with fish dishes and creamy lunches. This SA version is pure refreshment and delicate with flowers and just a hint of crisp pear, you're going to love it.

Gudilly Pinot Bianco 2023

Perihelion Cabernet Sauvignon 2023

Savoury on the nose and full of light, red rhubarb and trademark cherry that pours with carraway and rye spices. This feels smooth and refreshing, but has some savoury earthy, dusty tannin to keep you thinking.

Perihelion Pinot Noir 2023

Ochota Barrels A Forest Pinot Noir 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

First Drop The Real Time Chardonnay 2022

Amazing food wine thanks to fine almost tangible red fruits, crunchy raspberry and a super moreish, fresh acidity and peppery spice that props everything up just a little.

Ochota Barrels The Price of Silence Gamay 2023

A charming wine from the second it hits the glass, pouring with a lovely pale pink hue—judging by eye alone, you'd think it's a Provençal rosé! Fresh strawberry aromas carry through to the palate, with cherry, peach, and a light herbaceous note. A smidge of sweetness balanced by bright acidity, giving a whole lot to love for less than thirty dollars.

Lambrook Spark Sparkling Pinot Noir 2022

Made with a blend of Riesling and Sangiovese this tasty lil' number is brimming with fresh sherbet, mandarin, citrus blossom and a lick of pink grapefruit, yet remains deliciously dry on the palate.
