More than ever and in this time of historic travelling restrictions, the concept is being emphasized. Our offering of succulent, traditional Sardinian dishes presented by our head-chef Federico and complemented by carefully selected Sardinian and Italian wines is our way to bring Sardinia to your table: please ask for our seasonal degustation menu for the full experience. We have a diverse range of local wine too, largely from our own state of New South Wales, as we love to showcase local produce. For a quicker selection, you can turn to the Sardinian wine section, complete with maps and information on the history and varietals. In the main list, Italian and Australian wines are listed together, by varietal, to assist in navigating through the list more easily. We have a large range of wine by the glass including a premium selection, as well as small and large bottles. If you require guidance, a member of our wine team will be happy to assist. Cin Cin!

Regioni d’Italia 2 Organic, Biodynamic, Natural and Orange Wines As increasingly popular as they are controversial, organic, biodynamic and natural wines are now an important part of our wine culture - here we offer a little information for those who may be curious about, or new to them. Although it may all seem a little newage to some, it is worth noting that many of the best wines in the world from some of the most prestigious estates are made using these methods. Organic wines are produced from grapes grown without the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, fungicides and herbicides. Biodynamic agriculture is based on respect for the natural course of nature - in particular the phases of the moon - and its resources, as well as on the use of biodynamic preparations (natural compost) in certain phases of the year. The result will be naturally healthy plants, of high quality and able to defend themselves against parasites. Like organic wine, biodynamic wine also does not eliminate sulphites but limits them further. Natural wines are more difficult to define, as there is no governing body set up to control production methods, resulting in various interpretations. They are generally made with ‘minimal intervention’, using natural yeasts, and minimal or no sulphur is added. Wine is often left on skins (both white and red) and there is no filtration, fining or adjusting. Natural wines look and taste a little different to ‘conventional’ wines, they will be darker in colour and cloudy, and will evolve dramatically in your glass. They are food friendly, vibrant and interesting though, so whilst not for everyone, they are most certainly worth trying. Orange wines are created when white wine grapes are treated like red and left in contact with the juice. The longer the skins are left, the deeper the colour of the wine. Acqua e bibite Acqua S.

Romans also produced but small quantity of beers as they preferred wines instead.

We need waiting until mid-twenty century for beer to become in effect a product of common use.
