WINTER EDITION
ISSUE 3 2025
Is it just us, or does winter have a certain magic to it? The skies are softer, the evenings come quicker, and there’s a calm that settles over the neighbourhood — a perfect backdrop for a hearty glass (or two). Winter is a time to gather, reflect, and recharge, and we like to think it’s also a season made for discovering wines that warm from the inside out.
Our winter tasting series kicked off at Stuart St. Cellars with a spotlight on cool-climate reds. We caught up with a few Tasmanian producers doing deliciously interesting things with Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.
We’re thrilled to bring you our third edition — and our very first winter edition — of the Community Wine Newspaper. If you flicked through our summer and autumn issues, shared a story, a recommendation, or a laugh at one of our tasting tables — cheers to you. It’s our community that makes this little paper worth the ink. Since the leaves dropped, we’ve been busy.
You’ll also find a seasonal recipe from one of our local restaurants, who’ve been oh so kind to share with us (thank you Vin Populi), plus a slow-cooked favourite from our manager. There’s also a feature from Rob Mann, winemaker at Swinney, who’s shared his famous duck recipe — paired with some perfect winter warmers for your fireside evenings. We hope this edition keeps your palate inspired through the chill. Come say hi, try something new. As always — trust us and discover new wines.
