…in five drinks

  • Adelaide Hills in Five Drinks

    We asked Adelaide Hills native Pablo Theodoros, publican of the Stanley Bridge Tavern, to walk us through his beloved region. As always, it’s a tale told through the medium of five favourite drinks…

  • Castlemaine in Five Drinks

    Pat Underwood, the winemaker behind the Little Reddie label, and founding member of the Boomtown Wine cooperative in the old Castlemaine Woolen Mill, gives us the inside running to the people and places of Castlemaine. As always, it’s a tale told through the lens of five favourite drinks.

  • Daylesford in Five Drinks

    Now that we’re emerging from the social symptoms of COVID-19, and have the opportunity to rekindle our relationship with our favourite places, we asked Jeremy Shiell, Daylesford native and one of Australia’s most respected sommeliers, to gives us his version of the area. As before, it’s a tale told through five favourite drinks…

  • Hobart in Five Drinks

    We asked Adelaide expat Alister Robertson, helmsman at Hobart micro-wineslinger Sonny, to give us his take on what makes Hobart tick. Appropriately, it’s a tale told in five drinks.

  • Perth in Five Drinks

    Emma Farrelly, Director of Wine for the ground-breaking rebirth of Perth’s historic State Buildings, takes us on a personal tour of the west’s capital. As always, it’s a tale told through the lens of five favourite drinks.

Adelaide’s Top 10 Places for Wine Fun in 2021

Given Adelaide’s proximity to some of the country’s most influential wine-growing regions, it should come as no surprise that finding a glass of something great in the City of Churches isn’t all that difficult. And yet, there’s certainly no resting on laurels happening either. The evolution of concepts and ideas is a constant. The Wineslinger 2021 list of Australia’s top places for wine fun is here, and Adelaide’s Top 10 shows just how hot the city is right now.

Brisbane’s Top 10 Places for Wine Fun in 2021

Some of us like to drink wine at storied dining institutions, where tossing up between back-vintage Barolo or Brunello alongside a hefty bistecca is how it’s done. Then, there are others who get their kicks from premium German riesling under Coravin paired with dim sims and dan dan noodles. If the bars and restaurants that make up Brisbane’s Top 10 Wineslinger list this year are anything to go by, then it’s safe to say Queensland’s capital city is a place for all of us.

Canberra’s Top 5 Places for Wine Fun in 2021

With a raft of exceptional new venues sweeping the nation’s capital over the last few years, few can deny that cold old Canberra is turning the heat right up, leaving locals and guests suddenly spoilt for choice. The Wineslinger 2021 list of Australia’s top places for wine fun is here, with Canberra’s Top 5 showing just how exciting a wine destination the nation’s capital is right now.

Geelong by the Glass

Emerging from the long shadow of Melbourne and the key wine regions of the Yarra Valley and the Mornington Peninsula, Geelong and its vinous sub-regions have their own stories to tell. We asked Geelong resident, wine professional and local business owner Cam O’Keefe to fill us in on what makes Geelong tick.

Henschke Will their Lenswood Vines to Rise from the Ashes

Torched by bushfires that ran through the Adelaide Hills in December 2019, much of Henschke’s 30-hectare Lenswood vineyard was burned to the ground – yet a majority of the roots survived and new shoots emerged, while the barren blocks at least provided the Henschkes with an opportunity to plan the Lenswood vineyard afresh, which has resulted in the reorientation of many vine rows, and a mix of different clones chosen among new vine plantings. Viticulturist Prue Henschke spoke to us about their three-year journey of recovery.
