Justine Henschke
FROM WORLD FAMOUS WINERY HENSCHKE
A sixth generation member of the Henschke winemaking family – is not only a great friend of Sometimes Always, but the wine industry in general.
That’s why we couldn’t think of anyone better to piece together a Mixed Pack of some of her favourite wines from near and far.
We love that Justine is firmly committed to the future of Australia’s wine industry, appearing on many boards, committees and judging panels.
While her roots are local, her outlook is worldly, having travelled the world and working abroad before settling back home as Henschke’s Marketing and PR Manager.
Sometimes Always
Sometimes Always uses our connections in the wine industry to create specialty products, exclusively for us!
We will work with some of our favourite producers to challenge themselves and create a project that might be a little left-of field, or something they’ve always dreamed of making.

STAFF PICKS OF THE WEEK
The Good Doctor Is In
To become a doctor, you have to learn everything there is to know about your field – and then some. So does Dr Edge fit the bill, or is it just a playful moniker for acclaimed winemaker Peter Dredge’s Tasmanian project? With wines these expressive, complex and playful, we might even go so far to suggest a name change – Professor Edge, perhaps?
TASSIE PINOT GLORY
ROCKSTAR CHARDONNAY
Fresh Produce
GLAETZER-DIXON
These wines are in short supply and aren’t always easy to find. However, given the team’s personal affinity for the brand following one of their most memorable winery visits of anywhere in the world, they would have paddled it back over the Bass Strait themselves if they had to.
STARGAZER
The whole Sometimes Always team have a soft spot for Tassie wines (we’re only human). Amongst our favourites are Stargazer, the wines crafted by the hands of Samantha Connew, a wine industry figure we look up to.
Azienda Agricola COS
COS are one of our favourite Italian producers, hands down. However, their practices and philosophy is quite different to what is generally expected from Sicilian wine producers, especially back in 1980 when it was first founded.
NGERINGA
Discover the new range – and new look – from one of Australia’s pioneering biodynamic and organic wineries, Ngeringa. Their wines are grown, vinted and bottled on the estate, meaning they never venture far from where they’re grown, until they reach your glass.
