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

Traditionally found in western Sicily (and Tuscany where it’s called Ansonica). Inzolia is a dry white wine that leads with white flowers, lemon and ripe fruit notes. Fuedo offers those flavours, just with a little bitter pith and savoury edge, making it perfect with dinners, lunches and snacks. Mangia! Mangia!

Feudo Arancio Inzolia 2023

Little Wine Co Pecorino 2024

An authentic local take on Grenache that will hit all your senses with loving red berries and an earthy, stony minerality that shines at dinner time, especially when something hearty is on offer.

The Story Super G Grenache 2023

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

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

The Bee Gees of our wine range. That means an easy-drinking rosé full of candied fruit that stays squeaky clean and dry enough. Yes, there’s a nod to sweetness, but it’s hidden under all the other layers, like the often misheard lyrics of Stayin’ Alive.

Trapeze Rose 2024

We’ve always thought every Ottelia white was perfect anytime, but this is next level. Gewürtz with some Pinot Gris and Riesling for a textural palate of lychee and dandelion before a clean, acidic finish. Perfect.

Ottelia Anytime White Gewurtz Pinot Gris Riesling 2024

Mosaic Pet Nat Rose 2022

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

A brilliant wine for the money. Think deep, sweet red fruits and some liquorice root that gives all the comforting weight and richness. There’s also enough savoury tannic bite and bright acidity for it to be perfect for salami.

Piantaferro Montepulciano d Abruzzo 2022

Sangiovese that comes perfectly dressed for winter with warming plush cherries and brambly forestal fruits. This drinks with some sweet tobacco too, and a plenty of value. Before you ask. Yes, it’s go perfectly with your ragu.

Piantaferro Chianti 2022

Texture and floral richness with a bouquet of meadowy flowers to make all the pear and grapefruit flavours even prettier. Similar to Chardonnay and Greco, Piantaferro have made a Falanghina true to style, but don't fall too madly in love, it’s rare, and delicious.

Piantaferro Falanghina 2023

Aromatics, subtle fruit notes and texture. We love it when drinks ooze a vibe, this tastes like footpath dining with friends at 5pm. That means it’s full of melon, subtle strawberry and a salty, creamy finesse. There’s also just enough grip to let everything linger.

Bistro Rosé 2024

The Lane Lois Sparkling Blanc de Blancs NV 200ml PICCOLO

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

Who’d have thought… Sangiovese plus Merlot and Sagrantino can equal a Gamay-like wine. When it’s light and delicate thanks to a favourable growing season and the vines being at altitude. Unique and lovely.
