Sam Cooper from Greenhouse Knight came in recently so we could taste some of latest cuvees.

After crushing on his wines, we asked him to Pick Six and loved every minute of our wine chat with him.

We love a few chapters and a glass of wine, especially when the novel has us laughing out loud and the wine is fun but contemplative.

Here’s a pairing for a book we couldn’t put down —‘Stinkbug’ by — and a wine you’ll want another glass of.

This combination will also knock the socks off your entire book club, whether they actually read the novel or not.

Have you listened to the album, ‘Bleeds’ by Wednesday?

We’ve got it on repeat at the moment and couldn’t help but think of the perfect wine to enjoy with it.

These 2022 Il Giardano and La Rocca Pinot Noirs blew our staff away at a recent tasting we hosted, both were concentrated, powerful, mineral expressions that will delight for years to come.

We were also astounded by the sophistication and layered depth in Stefano’s 2017 Brut Rosé and NV Brut Reserve. These are absolute highlights on the Australian sparkling landscape and would impress even the most patriotic Champagne producer.

Stefano and Monique’s son, Marco Lubiana, has also delivered some brilliance, with a perfumed and poised Pinot that is absolutely singing right now.
