After enjoying a “distinguished career as a winemaker spanning over 20 years, working for some of Australia’s largest wineries” (Halliday), John Quarisa is making his own wines – his own way. The result? Mile upon mile of excellent wines that continue to win Gold!

Punnets of strawberry, blackberry and raspberry flavour are miraculously shoehorned into a standard size bottle, while ageing in American oak adds a spicy, toasty finishing touch. 'Big Mac' McPherson grew up in the world of wine, tutored by his father Jock, who had established a winery in the Hunter Valley. Andrew went on to set up wineries at home and abroad and work for some Australia's top names. These days he crafts characterful wines by himself at great value prices. The Full Fifteen is perfect with roast beef or lamb and a wonderful companion to barbecues.

A fresh and modern Chardonnay which is a pure expression of the fruit it was crafted from. Vibrant flavours of white peach, nectarine with subtle oak derived vanilla notes through the length of the palate with a clean citrus finish. This wine thrives on a warm sunny day and lively company to enjoy it with.

In 1843, Dr Lindeman, an upstanding man of formidable character, started his own winery. In doing so, he set his sights on civilising a colony of hard-drinking ruffians by introducing them to more gentlemanly pursuits, such as the enjoyment of a refined drop. This longheld tradition continues today with this stately Shiraz, plush with plums, a hint of raspberry, and a dash of fortified wine for a smooth finish. A fine wine by anyones standard.

This longheld tradition continues today with this handsome Cabernet Sauvignon, rich in blackcurrant and cassis, with a dash of fortified wine for a smooth finish. A fine wine by anyones standard.

Buller Victoria Muscat has luscious flavours of rich raisin fruits, finishing lush and sweet. Try it with plum pudding.

Yalumba has a proud history as Australia's oldest family-owned winery and their continuing quest for quality shines through in all their wines. This light and fresh example of Riesling is a delicate and citrus driven white, that entices you back, glass after glass.

A fresh and delicate Rosé by Jacob's Creek showcasing a modern Australian approach and premium fruit from selected blocks of Pinot Noir, Grenache and Mataro. Taste of vibrant varietal flavours and a lovely textural, chalky acidity lead to a soft, generous yet restrained finish.

Another fantastic bubbles from the team at Jacob's Creek who continue to produce great quality sparklings for some great prices. The blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes displays an elegant soft pink colour with an attractive marriage of lemon citrus flavours with fresh strawberry and red currant characters.

Merlot is the perfect varietal for those who like their red wines on the smooth side. Soft, velvety and plush with fruit characters of plum, blueberry and blackcurrant, Hardy's have produced a wonderful easy drinking red wine with the added bonus of being bottled in a larger 1L bottle adding great value.
