Love some mystery merch... But knowing the Italian art of hospitality, it's sure to become the most indispensable item you never realised you needed. We think we know what it's for, but would love to hear your ideas. Don't cheat and look up the brand. Most creative answer in comments gets one. (Keep it clean) And, if you're pouring @canevelspumanti in Australia, give us a yell. You need this.

A gift as special as she is. @bellussi_wines This Extra Brut is crafted from hand‑harvested Chardonnay grown high in the mountains of Cembra Valley, Trentino. Dry, fragrant and beautifully structured, with finesse built through a long, careful sparkling process. Perfect as an aperitif and ideal with fresh, raw dishes. But it’s the stunning packaging that truly sets it apart — making it an effortless Mother’s Day gift your customers will be drawn to on shelf. 👉 A must‑stock sparkling for #mothersday

George Samios’s Anzac Day pick for @116sen . With a couple of trophies, numerous golds, massive points from Halliday and more, $35 won’t hurt — it’s a bargain at twice the price. @serafinowines

A standout Clare Valley Riesling from @sevenhillwines “The sense of place is strong with this Riesling, with its dusty florals and citrus charm woven through warm textures. Intense lime and spice light up the aroma with sweet-smelling herbal edges and apple blossom florals. How delightful to see this level of complexity in a Riesling so young. Flavours run deep in full citrus mode - pith, peel and juice - with spice, and the weight gathers through the finish with a light savoury flourish to close. Drink now-2037” 95 points, The Vintage Journal 2026

What a weekend 🍷🏉✈️ Our competition winners James and Mat were flown to Adelaide for the ultimate AFL + wine escape with @claymore_wines — and it delivered from the moment they landed. After a classic South Australian welcome (hello, Villi’s pies 🥧), the boys headed straight to the Clare Valley to explore Shankly Vineyard alongside Claymore GM and local legend, Carissa Major, tasting back vintages and getting an exclusive look at what’s to come. From fresh 2026 Rieslings to a future red blend in the Boot Room Barrel Store, it was a true behind-the-scenes experience — barrels included. That night wrapped up with a private dinner at the Watervale Hotel, where owner Warwick shared stories and an unforgettable meal. Saturday kicked off early with the drive back to Adelaide, hotel check-in, a pre-game pub stop, and then into a fully catered corporate box at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. While the Bombers got up over the Demons (sorry James 😅), the atmosphere was unreal. Post-match wines, a free night exploring Adelaide, and (hopefully) fresh heads for the Sunday flight home to Melbourne. Huge thanks to everyone involved — and congratulations again to our lucky winners. 🥂

Unearth the beauty that is @gibsonwines Crafted by the Dirtman, Rob Gibson, a geologist with a passion for creating seriously delicious wine - their wines are bold, honest and ridiculously easy to love. That’s exactly why we’ve brought them into the Alepat Taylor fold. If you’ve ever wanted the perfect “serious quality, zero snob factor” wine for your list or shelves… this is it. Keen to taste the latest releases? You know what to do! #australianwine #dirtmanwines #barossawine

A Taste of Lombardia at Va Tutto. Our recent Wine Night was a celebration of Northern Italy, featuring the incredible wines of Nino Negri, perfectly paired with artisanal cheeses from Floridia Cheese and a curated degustation menu by Paul. A sold-out evening filled with exceptional wines, beautiful cheeses, and great company around the table. A special thank you to Frank from @alepattaylor for sharing these remarkable wines with our guests, and to Francesco and Fabio from @floridiacheese for showcasing their incredible cheeses. We look forward to welcoming you to our next wine evening at Va Tutto. 🍷 #WineNight #VaTuttoMelbourne #NorthernItaly
