'UMAMU is about reflecting the unique balance that is relevant to each and everyone of us, giving rise to contentment within ourselves.' It has taken us a while to find our own Balance & Contentment and we continue to… Thank yo

Comfort food, good wine, and no easy prep — our favourite kind of night in.

With friends: warm Peking duck pancakes, sweet hoisin, fresh cucumber and spring onion, and a bottle of 2019 Ann’s Cabernet Sauvignon on the table.

The richness of the duck works beautifully with the wine’s blackcurrant, cassis and dark chocolate notes, while the fine tannins and freshness help keep every bite balanced.

It is the kind of pairing we love most — fuss-free, delicious, and just special enough to turn a simple evening at home into something worth remembering.

Shop the 2019 Ann’s Cabernet Sauvignon on our website.

Music to our ears these two clips Melbourne. “UMAMU Best Chardonnay I’ve had today.” And “Our stand out wine at the show.” Woohoo.

This is our Chardonnay 2019, the same one available under coravin pour at six QT Boutique hotels atm. Remember us when you fancy a glass of exceptional Chardonnay at QT Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney, Newcastle, Gold Coast and Perth.

Cheers!

Fancy a glass at a beautiful setting?

We are thrilled to share that UMAMU Chardonnay 2019 is on Coravin pour by the glass at six QT Boutique hotels around Australia. I had the pleasure of meeting sommelier Tanya , thank you for having me over. Such a good looking hotel. Menu at Pascale looks amazing, something to look forward to next visit. Cheers.

Asian flavours can be beautifully layered — rich, spicy, aromatic, savoury — and finding the right wine pairing creates a tasty experience at the table.

That’s why we specially curated the UMAMU Asian Pairing Masterclass Trio:
3 wines, 3 recipes, pairing guide and short tasting videos to help you understand the pairings.

Inside the trio pack:
SSB 2005 — Gold Medal, Wine Showcase 2023
Chardonnay 2018 — 95 points, Wine Pilot Shanteh Wale
MacAnn Cabernets 2019 — 94 points, Wine Pilot Ken Gargett

Paired with three Asian dishes we love: fried rice, satay, and laksa — chosen to explore how acidity, texture, tannin, spice, age and richness work together in the glass.

Read more about the story behind the pairings on our blog, and explore the Masterclass Trio pack and on our website.

What wines pair with marron? We took the question straight to the vineyard.

With fresh marron, a pan of butter, and a few bottles on the table, we cooked and tasted our way through the pairings — from bright whites to aged Chardonnay, and even a red wine surprise.

What we found was a reminder that pairing is never just about rules. Texture, richness, acidity, age, and even different parts of the marron can completely change what works in the glass.

The full marron recipe, pairing notes, and our cookout-inspired 6 pack are now available on our website.

As a boutique wine producer, these events matter.

The Good Food & Wine Show isn’t just about pouring wine. It is about connecting with the people behind the purchase, having real conversations, and sharing the story behind what we make face to face.

It is also a space where community feels very tangible. I get to reconnect with the people I admire and team UMAMU, make new friends, and be reminded that this journey is built together.

And with that, a very big thank you to everyone who make these shows happen.

I always leave inspired — by the food, the wines, the makers, the conversations, and the people who make it all possible.

These are a few of the reasons I keep showing up. 🍷

Tasted in this video: 2005 SSB and 2006 Chardonnay.

Part 3/4, this was the moment that genuinely surprised us. The 2005 SSB came through with so much lift, acidity and lime character that it completely changed the conversation, while the 2006 Chardonnay showed just how beautifully a wine can age when it holds its structure and secondary characters with grace.

These were the kinds of discoveries that made this tasting so exciting — and the reason this 6-pack came to life. Not just a collection of wines, but a way to experience the unexpected turns that happen when good food meets the right bottle.

If you enjoy aged whites, real tasting moments, and wines that keep revealing more at the table, keep an eye out for the pack release. 🍷 link in bio!

Tasted in this video: 2019 Sauvignon Blanc Semillon and 2019 Chardonnay.

Part 2 of the marron cookout gets interesting fast. With freshly buttered marron on the table, together with Colin our vineyard guru, we compare SBS19 and Chardonnay 2019 — and as the butter builds, so does the pairing. What starts as a close tasting becomes a clearer conversation about weight, acidity, and harmony in the glass.

This real-time tasting is what inspired our upcoming marron pairing 6-pack — a curated pack for those who love discovering which wine works best with food, not just on paper, but at the table.

Watch the series, then shop the experience when the 6-pack goes live. 🍷

In this marron cooking pairing series in the vineyard: we look at pairing with six wines, a young and mature SBS/SSB and Chardonnay and two reds.

Freshly caught marron, a good k**b of butter, and that perfect sizzle — this is where our pairing journey begins.

In Part 1, we keep it simple: cook the marron well, let its sweetness shine, and build the foundation for everything that follows in the glass.

Follow the series, and discover what pairings work. 🍷
