We can never have enough wallet-friendly and delicious food wines, and this little organic and vegan-friendly number hits this category for six! Hailing from central Spain, this is a blend of Airén and Viura - two varieties seldom seen here in Australia, yet the former happens to be Spain's most widely planted variety. Pear, citrus blossom and a little lemon curd richness with a lick of zest acidity keeping things fresh.

Bodegas Fontana Merinas Airén Viura 2020

Floral nose with some citrus blossom is balanced with a palate of lemon balm and a splash of salinity. 170 days on skins, some phenolic push with silky, resolved long tannins. Deliciously complex, Favorita, Fiano and Garganega are all in harmony in this seriously great value wine.

MDI Favorita Fiano Garganega 2021

Marina Coppi is a small family-run estate in Castellania (closer to Liguria than Piedmonte), predominantly working with Timarasso and Barbera grapes. A lovely fresh style of wine, with a waft of meadow flowers and a nice honey tone. Delicious and thought-provoking.

Marina Coppi Colli Tortonesi Timorasso Francesca 2020

A rich, textural number with lovely acidity. Green melon, light apricot, some peach, hint of ginger spice and white pepper.

Domaine Sarrat de Goundy Le Marin La Clape 2020

Fresh and saline País Blanco, made from vines that have never been pruned or manipulated, and instead are left to climb trees and disperse as vines naturally do. It was fermented in amphorae using wild yeast, with a subtle hint of oxidation that speaks to its lofi handling. Crisp pear, barely ripe nectarine, and preserved citrus along with salty minerals. If you consider yourself to be an adventurous drinker with a particular soft spot for Chablis, then take a punt on this Chilean delight!

J. Bouchon País Salvaje Blanco 2020

Originally founded in 1998, Julien Courtois and his partner Heide at Le Clos de la Bruyère craft phenomenal wines. In the vineyard, they focus on working with and respecting the environment, choosing not to use any chemicals or pesticides.

Australia’s beloved broadcaster and presenter, Myf Warhurst, has long dreamt of having her own wine. We’ve had the pleasure of following Myf’s diverse career throughout Australian television and radio, with her latest endeavor culminating in the launch of her brand new podcast, Our Place. Hosted by Litmus Media, Our Place is a podcast which explores the intricacies of Australian culture, asking the big question: ‘If culture is how we share who we are with the world and how we tell our stories to each other, what is that story right now?’ In an epic collaboration that combines Myf’s aforementioned dream for a wine to call her own, with the Australian cultural icon that is cask wine, Happy Sack Productions have launched The Lonely Lady - a delightfully textual and spicy white blend from the Adelaide Hills. Its a total crowd pleaser for an audience of 1 (or more), and the perfect beverage to sip on whilst listening along to Our Place. Cheers! Vegan friendly!

Anne et Jean-François Ganevat Côtes du Jura Vin de Paille 2014

Another savoury wine with a fresh nose opening with a little saline, pith, and stone fruit. There’s a herbaceous edge, some white pepper and green capers – salt and spice, would suit olives.

Dune El Beyda White Blend 2021

It opens with a bit of volcanic reduction on the nose, yet blows off to reveal savoury herbs and light honey blossom. The palate is full of texture and glide, with rockmelon, green apple, citrus peel and saline minerals framed by chalky texture and grip.

Bosco de Medici Lavaflava Bianco 2020

A truly unique Poulsard that is bottled young and is brimming with energy. Bright citrus and stones, low ABV and a lovely pair with cheese.

Domaine de l'Octavin Negoce Hip Hip J 2020

Made from 100% Molette, a not so common white grape found in the west and south of Jura. A bright and fresh wine that is a lovely start to your dinner party or evening meal.

Domaine de l'Octavin Negoce Cle á Molette 2020

Made from Fié Gris (aka Sauvignon Gris) with is more commonly planted around the area of Auxerre. A richer style of wine with a refined texture, riper apple, ginger spice and a lovely waxy edge to add dimension. Classy wine.

Domaine Goisot Saint-Bris Corps de Garde Sauvignon Gris 2018

Floral notes and a hint of brine-like salinity meet in this wine with a dry and savoury edge. A perfect skin contact grape—this spent 17 days on skins resulting in a rich and seductive textural experience that's a perfect match with our favourite savoury snack. Yum!

MDI Ansonica 2021

This is a little richer than last years version, but still captures some of that greek island feel. Hightly aromatic with tropical fruits, orange citrus, mandarin all at play. This sits somewhere between Sauv Blanc and the Northern italian aromatics and texture of Moscato Giallo.

Gaia Monograph White Moschofilero 2020

This is an excellent example of how good this variety can be, and will strike an emotional chord with lovers of Chablis. Raised in 100% stainless steel and seeing no oak, it's a crisp and pure white with preserved lemon, green apple, jasmine florals, and savoury spice notes supported by saline acidity.

Giacomo Boveri Piccolo Derthona Timorasso 2020

Reis Derthona Colli Toronessi Timorasso 2019

A wave of floral and herb aromatics wash into a smooth, juicy palate with bunches of fruit – banana, pear and pineapple – with well-balanced acidity. Enjoy with seafood, oysters, pasta or in the cool shade on a hot day.

Celler Piñol Raig De Raïm White 2020

More than the sum of its parts, the seven varieties used here have joined forces to deliver a brilliant & balanced bianco (that inspires alliteration!). White pear and orchard fruit lead onto a citrus fruit palate with a slightly nutty, savoury edge and a little grip.

Billy Button Bianco White Blend 2019

Get a load of this! This intriguing wine is made from a plot of Kyoho table grapes which were planted at Bella Ridge's Swan Valley vineyard in the 1980s. The grape is highly prized in Japan due to its intensely exotic flavours, high sugar content, and thick skin which allows for the pulp to be easily squeezed out. The Kyoho white is made from six different vintages, and although made from red-skinned Kyoho grapes, it presents as a white wine due to the absence of skin maceration in the winemaking process. It's textural and floral, with ripe tropical fruit flavours giving way to savoury undertones and saline acidity.
