Grenache, Garnacha & Cannonau

Grenache - known as Garnacha in Spain and Cannonau in Sardinia - is our second great passion, and one of the most versatile and rewarding red wine grapes on earth.

Many of the wines in this collection also feature Syrah - a variety that adds structure, spice and intensity, and one that sits at the heart of some of the world's most celebrated bottles.

What unites everything here is a sense of place, a commitment to organic farming, and a price-to-quality ratio that makes Grenache one of the great opportunities in wine today.

We recommend for drinkers who love Australian Grenache or Shiraz but want to explore what these varieties look like in their ancestral European home.

DiBaldo Spirits

Alchemist, perfumer, and revolutionary liquorist, Baldo Baldinini is redefining gin, vermouth and amaro. Working with extraordinary creativity, precision and humility, he has set a bar that few others will likely reach. These are amongst the world's most masterful liquids.

Chips & Virgin Olive Oil

Unlike the vast majority of potato chips, Pafritas are fried in traceable, 100% Spanish virgin olive oil from Rioja. The result is lighter and crisper, with real depth of flavour and quality that is rare in the category.

The Garcia family behind Pafritas has made them in Rioja since 1994. Every ingredient is of peak quality, from the Spanish potatoes and Mediterranean sea salt from Alicante to oak-smoked Pimentón de la Vera DOP and winter black truffle from Teruel in Aragón. Open a bag with a glass of vermouth, fino or something crisp and white. It’s the ultimate snack.
