Celebrate the Festive Season at The Tasting Table Wine Shop

If you’re looking to buy some unique wines this Christmas season, The Tasting Table Wine Shop has a wide selection of wines from independent vineyards that you don’t often find in mass-market wine stores.

Owned by young, British wine expert, Jack Mullard, The Tasting Table places strong emphasis on European and Australian family-run vineyards. Their store carries lesser-known wine labels and prefers to support smaller vineyards allowing for greater diversity. A sample of these boutique wines include:

Whisson Lake, Adelaide Hills - La Storia Rose Pinot Noir 2011 (winemaker Tom Munro was nominated for Young Gun of Wine award 2012)
Made By Allies, Victoria - Colbinabbin Shiraz 2010 and Main Ridge Pinot Noir 2011 (winemaker David Chapman)
Denton Hill, Yarra Valley (winemakers include William Downie, Mac Forbes, Barney Flanders and David Chapman)
Lithostylis, Gippsland Chardonnay Viognier 2010 and Ironstone Pinot Noir 2010
Schloss Schonborn, Germany – Trocken (Dry) Riesling 2010 and Feinherb Riesling 2010.

The Tasting Table also stocks whisky, craft beers, traditional ciders, Highland to Lowland British ale and home-grown Australian crafted brews.

This December, The Tasting Table is holding these exciting events:

White Burgundy and Chablis (Chardonnay) Experience, Tuesday 18th December (7-9pm)

Learn your Mersault from your Chablis and the wonderful history of the Burgundy region in France.
