Fantastic Aussie wines, exclusive to The Vinorium
Our Australian portfolio has taken a severe battering this year and is looking decidedly thin on the ground. Despite torrid times for many in our trade, we have been busy scouring Australia for the next group of amazing winemakers, and we have unearthed some absolute belters. Our aim is to double our portfolio in the coming months with firm UK exclusivities recently established with Shadowfax, House of Cards, Elderton and more. Samples are arriving daily and by the time you read our entry, we are likely to have added a further ten producers to our incredible collection. It is one of those ‘keep popping back’ moments.
