Oily citrus with lots of bitter lemon and a smidge of hay seed, with fresh acidity that strikes the refreshing chord like... Chopin play a C Major, but with just a little masteral flare – mineral essence that adds to the dryness.

Latitude 32 Casurina Single Block Semillon 2023

Made by our very own, Angus Raddon. Here’s a Semillon and Viognier blend you should take BYOing or to a park party. Flavours are all in on the good time together, starting with lemon curd, ginger spice and some slippery apricot that all grow into a phenolic, bitter finish.

Stones Grow Vino Friendo Bianco 2023

For the smooth red lovers who find bliss in polished oak structure, but still love a bit of juiciness and ripe, berry pie flavours.

Intrepidus Nero D Avola 2023

Dry. Now that we’ve got that out of the way, we should also mention all the hydrating citrus-like, rosewater and clean acidity. Forget the weather, this is always refreshing and will find its place in your easy-drinking hearts.

Logan Weemala Gewurtztraminer 2023

Grown at above 800 metres, Mrs Peyton gets warm days and cool nights so the conditions allow for some dialling in. Undergoes MLF and matured in oak, you really get a balance of ripe fruit and moreish spice here. Sips are full of peach skin, stone fruit, grapefruit and a little buttery goodness.

Swinging Bridge Mrs Payten Chardonnay 2022

This BdB was picked a little early to keep it clean and refreshing. This is full of fresh, zesty citrus and a little grapefruit pith all of which would make it perfect to pair with a couple of oysters or a little cheese board.

Yarran Cuvee Blanc NV

Get into a Grüner like this Linear. Canberra’s a long way up so it’s got cool climate subtly – meaning it finishes dry and savoury, and the fruit presence is discreet. We recommend a bottle with pulled noodles and your crush.

Linear Grüner Veltliner 2022

Easy drinking and a good-time-kinda-wine, with cherry cola, sarsparilla and a nice dab of chalky tannin. There's a distinctly Australian and Italian feel, all at once, that makes it the perfect drop to drink while cooking a few snags—or Spiedini (skewers) on the BBQ! Made by the Chalmers family from the home estate and source of much of the Italian plant material we see especially in Victoria, but also across the country, hence the title Mother Block.

Chalmers Mother Block Red 2022

Bang for buck Pinot Gris from the excellent Peter Logan in Orange. Very easy-drinking, with ripe pear, nougat, tangerine, and even a hint of almond alongside sherbety acidity that compliments the wine's rich texture.

Logan Weemala Pinot Gris 2022

Sweet fruited aromatics with mineral acidity, lime leaf, orange blossom, and a touch of gingery spice.

Logan Weemala Riesling 2022

A softer style of Nebbiolo, but this still shows plenty of varietal character in the glass. Perfumed with candied red cherry, raspberry and some red liquorice. Earthy plum tempers the sweet aromatics in the glass, with some ripe fruit, a lick of dusty tannins and savoury notes to round out the palate.

Trentham Estate Nebbiolo 2021

Inspired by 18th century herbalists who blended organic, homegrown herbs, roots, and fruits for their healing qualities. Slowly infused orange peel, ginger, cassia, basil, coriander seed, gentian root, pink peppercorns, and bay leaf to make a sugar free, bitter and delicious addition to your next cocktail. It’s recommended where traditional recipes call for a dash - use 10 drops of Pyewackets Traditional Aromatic Bitters. 50ml

Pyewackets Traditional Aromatic Bitters

Fermented using yeasts that were captured from native flora, this sour ale is delicately effervescent and balanced with notes of Meyer lemons, fresh hops, and stone fruit. Can cellar for up to 5 years. (750ml) 5.0% ABV

Wildflower Gold Australian Wild Ale #28 2020

Collector Ledger Gruner Veltliner 2022

That thought that we’re all destined to repeat our choices because the options, given our considerations and circumstances, are actually the same so therefore, there is only ever one choice… the one you already made. (At least that’s my understanding of the theory.) It can be a real headache, but this is a choice we’d been happy to make over and again, and we sort of do because we enjoy drinking every vintage of Linear Gamay with its bright core of sweet raspberry and a dab of cola spice on repeat.
