    Our wine list is based around the drinking culture of ancient Rome and throughout the list we highlight the region of Lazio whilst supporting the great diversity of producers found here in Western Australia. Following a practice developed by the Romans for categorizing wines we have listed all wines by colour then by grape varietal forming a simplistic drinking guide. 1 Aperitivi (45ml) Vermouth – Italy Made with fortified wine infused with various botanicals including wormwood, gentian, cloves and other spices, recent history has seen this drink turn into the ideal aperitif.

Why We're Drinking It Tucked away in the beautiful, rugged landscape of the not-so-well-known Frankland River Region of Southwestern Australia, sits the Frankland Estate. It takes about 4 hours to get to from just about anywhere more densely populated (think Perth), but is its own slice of farming heaven. The owners, Barrie Smith and Judi Cullam, were originally wool farmers and decided in the late 80s to diversify their landscape and plant 30 hectares to vineyards. With a mind focused on organic farming they use mid-row cultivation, mulching, composting, and other techniques to increase soil fertility and bio-diversity in the vineyard. They even have a flock of guinea fowl led by Gladys, the queen hen, to tend to the bugs in the vineyard! Ok, so geeky history and organic practices aside, let’s get to this Olmo’s Reward. A blend of predominantly Cab Franc, Merlot and a smidge of Malbec, this beautifully balanced and complex wine has stunning aromas and flavors of juicy blue fruits, currants, and cranberries with notes of cedar, Thanksgiving spice and a hint of classic minty eucalyptus found in Aussie wines. It’s not your typical big, heavy Australian wine, it’s refined, savory and has a lovely racy backbone thanks to the vibrant acidity. Oh and the name you ask? It’s named for the founder of the region, UC Davis professor and renowned American viticulturist, Dr.
