Drink it cold and by the mouthful. Of course it will sip well, but we prefer it at a boogie between inspiring conversations while some house music thuds a joyously repetitive beat, which like the wine, is a little juicy and very fun. (1500ml)

Honky Chateau Tankini Chilled Red 2024 Magnum

Grown in one of our favourite Yarra Valley subregions, Dixons Creek, this is a cool climate-styled Shiraz that’s full of true-to-style dark fruits like violets and dark plums, whilst still being easy-drinking in the Bistro way – just like that inspiring Syrah we loved in the Rhône Valley too long ago.

BISTRO Shiraz 2022

Plucked from red soils and fermented mostly destemmed, but all as one ferment. It’s Classic Yarra flightiness and lift right here. That means florals and flavour that have a nice concentration, plus balanced oak and subtle bunchy spice with tannins that build and expand into (and beyond) your second glass.

First Foot Forward Pinot Noir 2023

Each precious vessel gets 800 of litres of YV juice and comes out with a firmer, structural feel which is offset by some subtle grassy notes and enough citrus to keep things crisp. It’s an impressive local side-step for those Loire Valley blanc lovers out there.

First Foot Forward Amphora Sauvignon Blanc 2023

A BBQ Pét Nat if there ever was one. Smooth strawberry and crunchy red fruits come together savoury and dry. Tell your parents it’s Shiraz and watch the confusion for a moment before they try it, then the smiles at their first sip. Don’t worry if they don’t love it, that just means there’s more for you.

First Foot Forward Shiraz Pet Nat 2023

Drink it cold and by the mouthful. Of course it will sip well, but we prefer it at a boogie between inspiring conversations while some house music thuds a joyously repetitive beat, which like the wine, is a little juicy and very fun.

Honkey Chateau Tankini Chilled Red 2024

Pink grapefruit, lime, rockmelon, and plenty of delicate, fine-boned cashew-oak thread running through to spread some deliciousness joy. A great wine to buy when you don’t know which side of the Chardonnay fence they sit on.

Kellybrook Edenesque Chardonnay 2023

Toolangi Chardonnay 2023

Fermented entirely in stainless steel to let the Grigio take centre stage and taste just like how you want Grigio from King Valley to taste, with that stone fruit, some sublime pear, and gentle acidity.

Santolin Pinot Grigio 2023

This also has a little biscuity edge, plenty of nectarine and best of all, value. It’s a great gifting wine and one to open just as after sunset, or even over lunch. You should pair it with cheese and mates.

Little Saint Chardonnay 2021

Rouleur Domestique Pinot Noir Syrah 2024

Soumah – South of Maroondah so this wine’s all about place and optimising the conditions to come up with something that speaks for the year, with just a little bit of the winemakers’ inflection. Marzemino is traditionally a Trentino grape that’s robust and full of big, dark fruits, some lovely savoury tones, and chalky tannins. This nails that, but gives just a little Yarra brightness and approachability.

Soumah Single Vineyard Marzemino 2023

Fits perfectly in your tumbler or carafe and suits your table cloth, and if you drink it on Nonna’s plastic-covered couch, you can theoretically spill without staining, but don't because it’s delicious! Also, she'll never forgive you. Has plenty of bright acidity and crunchy red fruits that will even make pizza better.

Soumah Nebbiolo Barbera 2023

Pretty peonies and rose petals blossom in every glass so pour, pour, pour away until your heart’s hydrated and the bottle’s empty. Hits with some chalky tannin and a little bright, but fleshy fruit.

Trapeze Pinot Noir 2023

Soft richness with a snapped-off piece of nougat and a peachy fruit feel that’s almost palpable and fades into your mood and takes over in the best way, like the Mazzy Star song that inspired this note. It’s refreshing and comforting so it’s perfect for opening before sunset and finishing in the dark.

Hirsch Hill Chardonnay 2023

You’ve gotta love a deep and delicious Pinot that’s got some bigggg vibes and can hang with your favourite cuts of beef, venison, roo and maybe even some delicious lamb.

Hirsch Hill Pinot Noir 2022

Juicy goodness that Lofi without being too Lofi. Pressed whole cluster and spends 72 hours on skins, it’s pithy, appley and citrusy in a way that makes you smile and want to eat. We recommend the park, a couch, or a house party as the ideal settings.

Greenhouse Knight Riesling 2023

First of all, it smells delicious and with all its macerated raspberry, cherry and strawberry, it drinks without a care in the world. It’ll also work with just a little chill which is great because we’re hoping summer will take over autumn and run into winter.

Vinoque Same Same Pinot Meunier Pinot Noir 2023

It’s all citrus, white florals, lemongrass and talc. It’ll go perfectly with a rewatching of that film you both love.

Vinoque Aromatic Riesling 2023

Dark currants and wild raspberry sweetness is moored with an edge of whole bunch savouriness and spice, woven through long and fine tannins. If you can bear to wait, this will only get better over the next five years.
