  • Best Wine Bar List – Dear Sainte Éloise
    “Dear Sainte Éloise, if you exist, please send me some money. I don’t ask for much — just enough to buy some bread and a bottle of wine” – George Orwell, Down and Out in Paris and London, 1933 We love this story. A young and desperate protagonist, destitute on the streets of Paris, praying to a photograph of a saint who is later revealed to be nothing more than a famous prostitute. It’s a funny scene with a great punchline and best of all: his wish comes true. He gets his wine and his bread, and he is restored. We too understand the happiness that simple pleasures can provide, when a solitary glass of wine can change your entire day. That’s why we built Dear Sainte Éloise – a place of simple pleasures and replenishment, and happiness, too. We like to think of this bar as a place where journeys are made and connections are forged. The pages of this wine list are filled with wines that have the ability to transport the drinker away from the everyday to fantastic faraway lands – from the beloved wine regions of Australia, to the incomparable sites of Europe, and beyond. This is a list that celebrates the great winemakers, who have defined what wine can and should be. But it’s a list that also gives a voice to the young, entrepreneurial and experimental winemakers of the present – those who will help define wine’s future. We believe that wine is an interconnected community full of sharing and learning, creating and drinking.

  • Africa and Southern Caucuses Tours - 2018
    Africa and Southern Caucuses Tours - 2018 1) 2018 East African Agribusiness Tour Wayne Dredge (Convenor) The itinerary for 2018’s African agribusiness tour is presently being finalised and will be circulated early in the new-year. The tour, which begins in Nairobi, will touch ground in Kenya, Tanzania, Malawi, Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Zambia to conclude at the most quintessential of African landmarks, Victoria Falls. The highlights will include visits to some of Sub-Saharan Africa’s fastest developing agricultural enterprises and most advanced research institutions. Presentations from global experts on food security, nutrition, conservation, future agricultural technology, product procurement and food manufacturing will be interspersed throughout the 24-day tour. Places are still available and any people wishing to learn more are encouraged to contact Mr Jim Geltch before the final cut off for new participants on February 28th. 2) Proposed tour of the Southern Caucuses in 2018 Simon Appleby (Convenor) The South Caucasus, incorporating the lands between the Black and Caspian Seas (Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan) is the Cradle of Wine, with archeological remains of winemaking dating as far back as 8000 years ago. It is believed that wild grapevine varieties were first domesticated in this region, with over 600 autochthonous vine variteies in the two countries, and that pre-Christian civilisations had a deep connection with viticulture and winemaking as part of religious ritual. Armenia is the oldest surviving Christian nation on earth, with Georgia having converted soon afterwards in the 4th century, and the two countries offer a unique opportunity to experience ancient wine culture in a comfortable and friendly environment.
