Guest Selector Pack
Dominique Lentz
FROM FRENCH WINE BAR LA BUVETTE
While Dom’s pack does naturally lean towards French, he has also included two new curious South Australian numbers that he has found particularly inspiring. Want to try before you buy? Head in to La Buvette, if you’re lucky enough to live in Adelaide, of course, where the majority of the wines in this pack is available over the bar.
BK Wines
BK Wines are one of those brands that we know we can rely on with any bottle we pick up. No matter the variety, we’re in for a good time.
Brendon and Kirstyn Keys have been creating BK Wines in the Adelaide Hills since 2007, crafting a range that are honest expressions of the small sites they source from.

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
TESTALONGA
Sometimes Always are lucky enough to have snared an allocation of Testalonga wines – including a premium dry Chenin Blanc that experienced 10 days of skin contact and a light and bright Carignan. Get onto this cult-classic-in-the-making bandwagon while you still can.
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.
Timo Mayer
Timo Mayer’s wines are somewhat harder to acquire than most – and that’s not even considering there aren’t any back labels or barcodes. See why this cult Yarra Valley producer is worth the fuss – and funk!
TORBRECK
Quite simply – Torbreck show classic Barossa winemaking at its best. The winery has established itself for not only its pristine wines, but also its commitment to the Barossa, becoming the custodians of many of the centurion vineyards they source from.
