WINE LIST SPRING 2019 At Gowings Bar & Grill our wine list celebrates the diversity in grape variety, region, style and philosophy that make’s today’s wine industry so exciting. Our wine list is global but focuses on Australia with a slight Italian accent featuring the wines that these two countries do well showcasing new and artisanal producers as well as the legends that came before them and built the industry we know today. However a wine list is really just numbers and letters on paper, you need a person to bring it to life; so we approach wine service this way. It’s not about selling you the ‘best’ wine, its finding you the ‘right’ wine. The wine that matches the reasons why you are here, the food you are eating and the people you are with. This is what we think makes a good bottle great and a meal memorable.
