John Quarisa, aka Johnny Q, is a terrific winemaker, creating wines that, like him, can be lively and highly charged. In his Caravan wine series, he likes to think of a grape that changes in style as it travels. So that here, Sauvignon Blanc grown in his Riverina vineyards produces a wine still with loads of grassy fresh zip, but along the way, has developed more tropical fruit flavours too. That is peach, pineapple and passionfruit! He insists on night harvested grapes to ensure lots of bright fresh flavours and cool ferments them for the same reason. This wine previously won a Gold medal and we think the 2021 vintage is tasting just as good – it's a fridge-door-must! Chill down and enjoy as a glass on its own or with spicy Thai dishes.

Made with classy cool climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay fruit from Victoria's Goulburn Valley and Strathbogie ranges, this delicious Sparkling from the McPherson family impresses with its elegance and flavour. It's a terrific aperitif, and of course, a wonderful celebratory drop. And it's a very bright and bubbly addition to any party. Enjoy!
