Stefano di Blasi has that classic Italian knack for making first-class, elegant wines that slip down a treat, and his exquisitely refreshing Bianco Trevenezie has been a must-have for seven summers straight.

It’s the perfect thirst-quencher, with fruity, floral aromas that lure your nose into the glass, then you taste all that lovely fruit salad of apples, peaches and pears packed into every cubic inch. Even better, all that yummy flavour now stays fresh and delicious for 6 weeks after opening, behind an airtight seal, so there’s no need to polish it off in a hurry.

With three bottles worth of wine squeezed into a handy, lightweight box, it’s made for get-togethers and special occasions. You can zip this crowd-pleasing white in your cool bag along with some cheese sarnies and a packed punnet of raspberries, then head to the beach for a sunshine feast with family and friends.

Cerina is a super talented winemaker who knows a secret that few SA winemakers are yet to catch on to. Whilst working out in the West Coast bushland of South Africa, she discovered a handful of old bush vines - sitting at a dizzying 400m altitude with cool Atlantic breezes, these vines were built to make premium quality wines. Fact.

This luxurious and tummy-warming red is a prime example of what makes South African Syrah so darn good. It’s a rich feast of blueberries and deep blackberry flavours with a touch of cinnamon and nutmeg to bring it all together.

It’s already super-delicious and ready-to-enjoy right now but give it a couple of years and those flavours will just multiply. A dreamy Syrah like this cries out for a special slap-up meal so our tip is to save it for your next birthday or anniversary, then pour yourself a glass and enjoy with a juicy steak in peppercorn sauce and a side of chunky chips. Yummy.

This classic, oak-aged Chard gives you a soft, unctuous feel and a rich mouthful of creaminess.

Angel funding not only lets Daryl get his hands on the best fruit and buy the expensive French oak barrels he needs, but also allows him to take as long he needs to make a delightful wine without wasting time on marketing and sales.

Roast chicken is the stereotypical pairing with a buttery Chard... taste this wine with it and you'll understand why!

For generations, the di Candilo family have grown grapes in the medieval village of Monte Odorisio in Abruzzo, in the heart of Montepulciano country. This special selection was made to honour old grandfather Panfilo, who was the first to make wines from the family’s grapes.

It’s a level up from Mario & Simona’s regular Montepulciano. It’s their really special stuff made from 40 year-old vines, and it only gets made in years when the harvest is top quality. A bureaucratic cock-up means they can’t call it a Riserva as it wasn’t registered in time. But it’s totally Riserva-quality as it meets all the strict rules around quality of fruit and oak ageing.

As you hover your nose over the deep, dark glass of wine, you’ll get heaps of ripe blackberry and boysenberry aromas. In the mouth it’s full, ripe and rounded. Juicy black forest gateau fruit flavours dominate, carrying all the way through to the finish. Layered and textured with fine chalky tannins, this classic Monte delivers power and elegance in equal measure.

This is Napa Cab at its best - rich, bursting with ripe dark fruits and a luscious lick of vanilla and spice. It’s silky smooth and delightfully moreish....

Eddy bought a bottle of his Mago on tour and Angels went wild for it so we shook hands and took the lot. He's pleased as punch with his third wine for Angels and we reckon it's destined for greatness.

The name pays homage to the ancient wine buff, Mago, who wrote some of the earliest works on viticulture; teaching the ancient Greeks and Romans a thing or two about winemaking!
