The Waxed Bat
Sun, clear air, cool elevated vineyards and great winemaking skills give Argentina all the ingredients for world class wines. Joanna Simon says: "As a wine country, Argentina has everything going for it" (The Sunday Times). The Waxed Bat is a triumphant creation from our good friend Opi Sadler, winner of two international Trophies to date, and winemaker at Andean Vineyards. The wine's name was inspired by memories of his grandfather's cellar - wine bottles sealed with heavy red wax and an occasional bat fluttering in the lamp light. Spicy, liquorice scented Shiraz, cassis laden Cabernet and dense Malbec create power and complexity. Smooth enough to drink on its own and terrific with spare ribs, steak or kebabs. Decant an hour in advance.
Tempus Two Lighten Up Pinot Noir
A full flavoured wine with lower alcohol and reduced calories this wine can be enjoyed at any occasion. Tasting notes - Black Cherries and Red Berry notes complemented by delicate spice and soft juicy mouthfeel.
Fifth Leg Rose
Fleshy red fruits of strawberries are apparent on the nose - this is bright, fresh and very tempting. The red fruited theme continues on the palate with savoury notes keeping the palate balanced. Cleansing acidity creates a crisp and cleansing finish. In typical Rose fashion, extremely moreish!

Chris Ringland CR Shiraz
Chris Ringland Shiraz has been one of Australia's most loved wines over the past few years with its immense concentration of bold, forboding fruit. Chris Ringland, the man behind such famous names as Three Rivers Shiraz, creates a wine that is made from mature Northern Barossa vines and shows dark mass of concentrated black and blue fruits, laced with sweet mocha and wrapped in a smooth, velvety texture. Not for the faint of heart, the CR Shiraz is improving vintage on vintage.
Casa Santos Lima Quinta De Bons Ventos
'You will be a star, for little money, if you take this to a dinner party. A blend of four indigenous Portuguese varieties, this has cherries and chocolate flavours that have a savoury edge and a gentle finish.' - Jeff Collerson, Daily Telegraph.
Friends Pablo & Pedro Tempranillo
Australian made but with Spanish heritage evident upon opening, discover delicious aromas of red fruits, blackberries and a touch of spice on the nose. Followed by mouth-watering flavors of strawberries, vanilla, subtle oak and ripe tannins on the palate. Enjoy this juicy Tempranillo with tapas style dishes like croquettes, chorizo and olives or a wood-fired mozzarella pizza. The Pablo & Pedro Tempranillo is a great choice for garden parties on those sunny days.
Friends Isabella & Katarina Grenache
Bright ruby in color, bursting full of raspberry and red current aromas, with flavors of red cherries and a hint of spice. The wine is smooth with an uplifting finish, making it a great partner for pork chops or Middle Eastern dishes.
Friends Franco & Rico Malbec
Cherry red in colour with purple hues, you'll encounter aromas of blackberries and cherry, when opening this Franco & Rico Malbec. This wine is full of plum and blueberry flavours with soft undertones of sweet spice on the palate. A great Australian take on an Argentinean classic, we recommend pairing it just like they do in Mendoza– with grilled meats straight off the BBQ or cured meats as an appetizer.
