The Maker’s Mark story began over half a century ago, when the Samuels family started their quest to create a bourbon they enjoyed drinking & sharing with friends. & it’s still made in the same way as it was back in 1953. Their method is old-fashioned, timely & inefficient – & they’re fiercely proud about it. Their philosophy is care over convenience, opting to take time to produce quality bourbon by hand – to exacting standards. It’s aged by taste, not time, & the barrels are h&-rotated to ensure perfect, consistent ageing. Using soft red winter wheat, instead of the usual rye, gives a full-flavoured bourbon with rich notes of cinnamon & cloves. Inspired by the pewter mark whitesmiths put on their best work, Maker’s Mark is firmly cemented as one of Kentucky’s finest bourbons. Expect smooth notes of vanilla, baking spices, almond & caramel. ...

Cabernet loves the sun but often in its famous Bordeaux home, it doesn't get enough. This can produce green, austere wines. No such problem in sun-licked Australia. Here Cabernet is pampered & produces big, flavourful reds that cost a fraction of the price of its French cousins. Making Tracks is a tribute to this Aussie brilliance. It's a spicy cocktail of rich blackcurrant, dark cherry, vanilla & oak. ...

There's no better way to start your Aussie expedition than with Shiraz, the jumbo grape that's taken on its own mammoth identity in Australia.

The perfect wine to take to a barbecue, best enjoyed with grilled burgers & sausages. ...

You'll find Viognier like no other in Limestone Coast. It boasts limestone fruit-enriching soils & a cooler climate than surrounding areas.

MAN Family Wines was founded by three friends who often stayed up too late talking about how to make a living from winemaking. Their approach is to keep things honest & straightforward. That's why this wine is named Outentiek, which is Afrikaans for 'authentic'. They deliberately avoided too much oak & the fruit-forward style of Shiraz you may expect from South Africa. It's a medium-bodied, peppery Syrah with bright red-fruit notes & polished tannins. Try it with crispy pork belly. ...
