Nautilus Estate

“When it comes to the festive months in Australia, most people automatically think of popping a bottle of Champagne, however currently Australians are spending more on Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc than they are on Champagne, and we can see why! Marlborough winery, Nautilus Estate’s 2024 Sauvignon Blanc is a delightful wine that displays intense lifted aromas of lemongrass, fresh blackcurrant buds and ripe grapefruit. The palate introduces delightful lime zest flavours with mouth-watering intensity finishing with a strong textural component. It perfectly pairs with fresh, seasonal dishes such as crunchy fish tacos with a lime and chive yoghurt or a snapper crudo with blood orange and salmon roe, making it ideal for summer entertaining.”

“When it comes to summer wines, something light and crisp is what most people are reaching for. Exploring different wine formats can elevate the experience – especially when entertaining. Our Rewild bagnums hold 1.5L (the equivalent of two bottles), perfect sharing with friends and keeps wine fresh for up to 30 days once opened, offering a smart, flexible solution for the busy summer season. With less packaging and a lower carbon footprint than traditional bottles, bagnums are also a more sustainable choice for entertaining with ease and a lighter environmental impact. The Rewild Sauvignon Blanc, available in both bottle and bagnum, is a light to medium-bodied wine with vibrant passionfruit and tropical aromas, and fruit-forward grassy notes – an effortless summer sip that suits any occasion, and pairs perfectly with the seasons favourite seafood dishes including fresh oysters, BBQ prawns and kingfish sashimi.”

“Summer wines call for, fresh and lighter styles – like Tread Softly. A certified sustainable option that is naturally lower in alcohol, a favourable choice for our hot Australian summers. Chilling lighter styles of red wine, like our Pinot Noir or Grenache make for a great fruity and refreshing drop also – even better served with a side of charcuterie and Aussie sunset.”

“Wine cocktails and spritzes make for a beautiful drink to enjoy in the sunshine. We have recently launched Patisserie, a slightly sweeter style of wines that work perfectly in a spritz – adding a dash of soda water to our Passionfruit Friand Sauvignon Blanc makes this wine a go-to aperitivo moment. Less mix-ins means less sugar, I’d highly recommend trying a Patisserie Spritz this summer – and at 9%ABV, it’s perfect for the warm days ahead.”

Santa Margherita

“When it comes to warm weather entertaining, few wines capture the celebratory spirit of summer quite like Santa Margherita. For the perfect bubbly to kickstart festivities, have a taste of the well-renowned, original Italian Prosecco Superiore by Santa Margherita. With a lively sparkle and a clean, fruity bouquet, it’s the ideal choice for a crisp, refreshing sip to break through the heat. Santa Margherita’s best-selling Pinot Grigio is also one of the ultimate entertainer’s wines. Clean, dry, and versatile it’s perfect for any summer soiree and is beautifully complimented by seafood – we recommend a fresh and light choice like a Spaghettini Vongole.”
