Fournier Pere & Fils MMM Chenin Blanc

We believe the best wines tell a story of place and people.

That’s why we’re so proud to share this Fournier family Chenin Blanc. Their commitment to meticulous craftsmanship mirrors our own value of never cutting corners. It’s a refined expression of the Loire Valley that honours heritage in every drop.

It’s a bottle defined by "just enough" a whisper of honeysuckle, a touch of minerality, and a gentle, lingering acidity that invites you to slow down and savour the moment.

Whether you’re pairing it with a summer seafood spread, a creamy cheese board, or simply pouring a glass to unwind.

What’s your favourite memory of a wine that told a story?

Sadivino Simona Sangiovese Superiore

From the heart of Emilia-Romagna comes a winery that blends tradition with a modern, boutique soul. Established in 2010, this 6-hectare gem is part of a new breed of Sangiovese producers putting Predappio back on the map as a premier wine destination.

It’s not just about what’s in the glass—it’s about the culture. Their labels feature the striking works of local painter “Grota,” whose original masterpieces line the walls of their wine cellar.

This Sangiovese bursts of blackberry, cherry, and red currant, finished with delicate floral notes of purple blossoms.
Fresh, fruity, and beautifully textured. It’s soft on the palate with a medium persistence that leaves you wanting another sip!

Save the Queen Antwerp Gin Batch 57

This one’s a sweet salute to Ghent, made by two Belgian beekeepers who thought, “Let’s put honey in gin and save the world.”

Infused with raw Ghent honey, Save the Queen Antwerp Gin Batch 57 boasts a golden glow and a silky-soft edge that harmonises perfectly with its carefully selected botanicals. At Barrels & Stills Hawthorne, we appreciate its smooth, floral, and slightly wild character, reflecting the charm of Ghent itself. Discover this unique gin that blends tradition and innovation.

Naturi Vermouth: Bush Renaissance

An Australian vermouth that demands to be drunk neat? Richard Gunner's Naturi range proves that fortified wine's second act might just be its finest. these three fortified wines (because that's what vermouth is, which is surprisingly easy to forget) possess a quality you find in the finest 'non-table' wines. There's a genuine belief here in vermouth's magical, almost curative qualities—and after tasting these, you might just believe it too.

The Between Five Bells Red is a masterclass in "the art of the blend." By bringing together Sagrantino, Syrah, Pinot Noir, and even a splash of Vermentino and Fiano, Ray from Lethbridge wines has created something seriously succulent.

Expect a myriad of bright fruits balanced by a sophisticated savoury edge. It’s complex, interesting, and honestly unbelievable value for the quality in the bottle.

Have you tried any of the @betweenfivebells lineup yet?

What happens when winemaking legend Elisabetta Foradori decides to shake things up? You get Ampeleia Unlitro. Instead of the usual Sangiovese-heavy blend, this is a "counter-culture" mix of Alicante Nero (Grenache), Mourvèdre, Carignan, Sangiovese and Alicante Bouchet.
The 1-Litre bottle says it all: this wine is for drinking, not overthinking.

It’s easy to see why this remains one of Italy’s most treasured wine styles. One sip and you’re transported to the rolling hills of D'Abruzzo.
Feudi Bizantini Terre Dei Rumi Montepulciano is a masterclass in balance. It hits you with that dark, opulent fruit and those signature flourishes of spice you crave, but keeps things sophisticated with a softly textured finish.

Morning coffee is my favourite ritual, before heading into Barrels & Stills Hawthorne for the day.

I’m so hyped that the Festively Plump Xmas blend from Cavalier Coffee Roasters is finally back! It’s super creamy (literally tastes like milk chocolate) but has these wild notes of nectarine and red frogs that make it so unique.

I’ve got my bag for the kitchen counter, but trust me, you need to grab a bag instore while it’s still around. It’s a limited run, so don’t wait!

In 2005, Sons of Eden's mission was simple: create the finest example of an Eden Valley Riesling. Every step was deliberate.

By fermenting cool and taking the wine to complete dryness, they captured the delicate aromas that make the region world-class. A true testament to patience and precision.
The result? A dry, refined Riesling, that stands the test of time.

Jasmine Monet Pink Organic Rosé NV—a sparkling experience designed for those who appreciate the finer details. From its soft pink hue to the "rosary-like" bubbles that dance in the glass, this Rosé is the definition of sophistication.

Forget what you thought about red wine! Meet the Tutiac Mode Rouge AOP Bordeaux Chilled.

It's a beautiful, limpid cherry-red with a nose that's pure delight: think intense strawberry candy and raspberry notes! On the palate, it's smooth, light, and full of fresh strawberry and cherry goodness.

The secret? Night harvesting and gentle, low-temp maceration that preserves all that vibrant red fruit. This is the future of food and wine pairing—served perfectly chilled. 🥂

Forget your average beer. Say hello to Birra Messina Vivace! 🍋🍻

This bright lager is your ticket to a mini-vacation. Crafted with barley malt, corn, and a touch of Sicilian lemon extract, it's bursting with light citrus notes and a fresh aroma from aromatic, fruity hops.

This Sauvignon Blanc breaks all the rules (in the best way). Whole bunch pressed, fermented in concrete tulips + old barrels. 8% skin contact and natural malo softens that classic Savvy bite while keeping all the energy you want.
The result? Pulpy, layered, mouth-watering tension that flips the script on what you expect from NZ Sauvignon Blanc.
This is NOT your typical crowd-pleaser—it's so much better! Don't miss this one. ❤️

Spier Good Natured Organic Chenin Blanc

A delicate gold colour, this Chenin Blanc has plenty to offer on the nose: quince, citrus and stone fruit to name but a few notes. Gloriously juicy on the palate, there is a burst of exotic fruit like lychee and pineapple that leads to a refreshing and zesty finish.

Good Intentions Wine Co Magnolia

This Gewürztraminer from Wrattonbully isn't just a wine; it's a sensory powerhouse. The wine left on skins for six full days, unlocking an intense, heavy bouquet that's so floral it practically leaps from the glass.

Full of lychees with a serious punch of flavour! Its mesmerising amber colour is a natural showstopper.
