Description Easter's on the way, and with celebrations with family and friends in mind, here's an outstanding collection of great Aussie whites to enjoy as ideal aperitifs or bring along to the dining table. Thistledown's 92pt Italian inspired Fiano Zibibbo has been described as one of the country's finest aperitif, but you might choose the beautifully balanced Semillon Fiano blend from the Barossa Valley or Howard Vineyard's acclaimed Adelaide Hills Sauvignon. There's impressive Clare Valley Riesling and popular Pinot Grigio too and perhaps the star of the show, Tahbilk's luscious two-Gold, 95pt Marsanne. All this plus an Aussie sparkling sure to delight, and there are two elegant stemless glasses in the mix too.
Made with classy cool climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay fruit from Victoria's Goulburn Valley and Strathbogie Ranges, this delicious Sparkling from the McPherson family impresses with its elegance and flavour.
Sample the rewards of the region with this deliciously dry drop. Look for light tropical notes alongside the zesty lime and citrus blossom.
In the fun-loving 92pt Thistledown Cloud Cuckoo Land, Italian varietals from the Riverland come together in harmony. A vibrant, textural white with hints of almond blossom, quince and ripe pear, it's tangy, almost exotic, but pithy and delicious.
Lovely, lemony Semillon combines with minerally crisp Fiano to create a full-flavoured, versatile white that will match a delicious array of dishes, from fresh seafood to roast chicken, to spicy Thai or creamy Italian – and more!
Charleston in Adelaide Hills is the location of Howard Vineyard's rolling 36-hectare Beautiful Valley Vineyard. They grow a many varietals here, but their best Sauvignon Blanc comes from 'Block Q'.
Made in the light, crisp and zesty Italian style by Chief Winemaker Emma Norbiato, this dazzling Aussie Pinot Grigio makes a wonderful partner to Italian fare like pizza, pasta, grilled meats ... you get the picture!
A great vintage in Ngambie Lakes for this Tahbilk classic. They have almost cornered the market on this variety. This honeysuckle and fresh lime-edged 2021 has won Golds and high points galore.
These two elegant yet practical stemless glasses are perfect for everyday drinking and enjoyment.
