Fruits are cherry and raspberry, and they’re sprinkled with some of that iconic Tassie layered depth that’s simultaneously complex and upfront. This lives up to the price, and will exceed your expectations.

Anim Clarence Pinot Noir 2023

Chenin is the wine for Chardonnay lovers who appreciate fuller flavours and a little textural trip. This wine just hits us right between our palate and our heart with all its pear, chamomile, lemon curd and baked apple that widens, like our smile, with each sip.

Yayoi Vallée of the Kings Chenin Blanc 2023

Tumblong for juiciness and a nice, crisp dose of acidity that will be right at home, sidling up to your bowl of bolognese, or Tuscan bean soup. Gentle handling of the grapes in the winery means the flavours are ripe with cherry, dried herbs and some soft chalky tannins.

Tumblong Hills Table of Plenty Barbera 2022

From a family-run vineyard in the Barossa, every drop is full of sweet fruits and slinky spices that come through all fleshy and with some nice weight.

Rusden Driftsand GSM 2022

All stainless fermentation makes for glasses of crunchy, bright raspberry and morello cherry, plus a raspy tannin and a bouquet garni. Crowd-pleasing doesn’t translate in Italian, but if it did it might be, piacere della folla – even nonna’s pronunciation gets better after a glass of Farina.

Farina Valpolicella 2020

Mostly Sangiovese with a healthy blend of Shiraz. It’s Italian lover meets Australian romantic bottled, so the pour is super vibrant but there’s some dusty tannin, dark cherry and earthy, sooty depth. Nine months in French oak plays like a good ironing, so smooth-wine-lovers should take a couple.

Intrepidus Sangiovese Shiraz 2023

Sooty and savoury with a black olive edge and some spices that’ll be there for you all through Spring and on cold Summer nights. Cheers to all the generous mulberry, plums and that little leafy, spiced oak. It’s literally the ‘jewel’ in our Merlot/Cabernet section, so if you like shiny rocks and you were meant for me, then I was meant for you.

Gioiello Estate Merlot 2019

Bright, lifted blue fruits, spicy lined tannin and some chewy acidity – they might be some of the words you want to hear if you need a red for a BBQ. The fact that it's all savoury and chalky also means it’ll pair well with slow-roast lamb, blue cheese, and dark chocolate, so yes take it with you to that BBQ.

Higher Plane Time for Heroes Malbec 2023

Cassis with mulberry, a little tobacco leaf and a smudge of dusty tannin. It’s an amazing table wine that’s dependable and reliable. The fruit is nice and weighty here, picture stewed plums with baking spices coming through with some earthy softness and a savoury edge. Yummo.

Christmont Casa Rosso Merlot Sangiovese Blend 2022

Long Rays Original Tonic 275ml

What are Nootropics you ask? Without getting too elemental, they’re ingredients that help stimulate the parts of your brain to have you thinking-even-faster. Hibiscus meanwhile, is a plant grown in warm climates, and watermelons are a hit every summer, so what we have here is essentially a little can of alcohol-free sunshine that’s perfect for a good, well-thought-out time. (250ml)

Better Days Cactus Water Hibiscus Watermelon

As zesty and refreshing as that boat ride from Venice to Burano. Remember when the bow hit some chop, sending salty sea spray onto the deck and just a cooling mist over us and the other passengers while the Italian driving the boat let out a concerned, but charming, Madonna?! Just the word, Limoncello throws up all kinds of great memories for so many, it’s good to have more, and canned.

Versa Limoncello Spritz 250ml

Those surfers in Torquay are such sweeties. They’ve even bottled all their kindness this year and made a Pastry Stout with charred toffee and caramel notes, plus some syrupy, delicious, texture to get you through the coldest nights this winter and spring. (440ml)

Blackmans Honeycomb Barrel Aged Stout

You have to wait till the fruit is just about to drop if you want it at its best. We’re not sure we have that level of patience, but thankfully, the people at Capi do! That means this bitter and tangy beauty is perfect! So good solo, and as a mixer, it’s never too sweet but it does run out quickly, like most delicious things.

Capi Grapefruit 750ml

A Limoncello Spritz that's as bright and zesty as your favourite boot-shaped country, the Zonzo crew have combined their Limoncello with their classic Prosecco for a very good time in a bottle. Sì grazie!

Zonzo Zoncello

Mischief Brew Grapefruit 250ml

Up Dark Cherry Chocolate 130g

Farmed 100% Slave Free Trade from a region (El Roasario) in north-western Colombia. The producers say it’s got golden caramel-sweet aromatics and hints of toffee but I was too busy scoffing it all down quickly so no one else could get any to verbalise anything more articulate than 'ummm'.

Up Original Milk Chocolate 130g

A collaboration with a hot sauce artisan working in Collingwood, here’s a soda that’s spicy, tropical and zings with refreshing vibes. Perfect with anything from the most laboriously made slow-roasted birria tacos, or a packet of corn chips and store-bought guac. Enjoy your escape to Tijuana.

Mischief Brew Pina Picante 250ml

This can of Mischief drinks with the right about of Ginger Ale snap. It’s here to encourage a good time so enjoy one, or live your best life with multiple.
