Discover wine’s possibilities

⁠’The earth laughs in flowers.’ – Ralph Waldo Emerson

As buds break and spring unfolds, we’ve been busy selecting shareable wines perfect for BBQ, gardens, and outdoor events. June’s bundles feature exciting vignerons like ex rugby player turned maverick winemaker Pierre Cros who cultivates traditional French varietals and also Portuguese and Italian grapes, and, Jonathan Grieve who utilises a unique ‘posse’ of ducks to keep his vineyards free of snails, eliminating the need for chemicals.

Cheers to sunshine, adventure, and a glass (or two) in the grass.
