Vibrant and approachable Shiraz from one of the state’s most prized winemaking pockets. What a wine to show off to your most rusted on South Oz Shiraz lovers. Complex and full of olive tapenade, earthy notes and a lot of savouriness, it’s simultaneously unique but approachable.

Bannockburn 1314 Shiraz 2024

Need a sure thing that lets you know you're making all the right choices? Here it is with an unbelievable profile. Pours deep purple and has a weave of dark spices and star anise, plus some cassis and currants. Very French for Geelong, from those fruits to the acidity and unfolding effect you get as you drink. Absolutely cellarable.

Provenance Geelong SV Pinot Noir 2022

This is Pool’s Vinho Verde so get fishing or head to your local monger, and get your paella dish out – if buying one, go ceramic, they’re easier to clean and you don’t have to worry about rust.

Pool Wines Verde Semillon 2024

Stay in, or head out with divine and generous, fleshy cherries and raspberry confit that pour with trademark Geelong depth. Really fresh and bright in style and super lifted aromatics. Some oak and a little orange peel with charcuterie. Some things just really come together.

Provenance Golden Plains Pinot Noir 2022

Tastes like the best adult fruit juice, and pours with a good handful of spice from the Aglianico, which also keeps it savoury, and all that berry fruit from the Franc.
