Consider this your cheat sheet to nailing the perfect pour for every moment, from big celebrations to quiet nights in (and everything in between).

Movie Night:

Movie nights mean one thing - buttery salty popcorn. A Chardonnay with some oak influence and creamy body is a classic match because its own buttery, vanilla, toasty notes harmonise with the popcorn, while its acidity will cut through the richness so each sip keeps your palate fresh between bites. Alternatively, elevate your experience even further with a dry Prosecco - citrus notes complement both sweet and savoury popcorn seasonings, with crisp bubbles to cleanse the palate.Try: All Saints Estate 2025 Family Cellar Chardonnay, or 2025 Prosecco.

Backyard Barbeque:

With their smoky flavours and hearty nature, backyard barbecues call for wines that can stand up to the intensity. For lighter barbeque fare such as chicken skewers or seafood, try a crisp and refreshing Riesling - bright acidity and citrus-driven freshness will cut right through smoky grilled flavours. For heavier or fattier red meats, a bold fruity Shiraz - its peppery spice and firm tannins can stand shoulder to shoulder with even the deepest savoury flavours of chargrilled meats.Try: All Saints Estate 2025 Riesling, or St Leonards Vineyard 2022 Shiraz.

At-Home Date Night:

Date nights at home call for a wine selection that feels special, expressive, and enjoyable together, without being too heavy or one-dimensional. Try a Marsanne - a more rich and interesting white wine than your everyday variety. With stone fruit (pear, quince) and a textural complexity, it feels more sophisticated and 'date night-worthy'. Alternatively, a Durif delivers concentrated dark fruit, depth and a velvety richness - great for a slightly more indulgent meal, adding gravitas and warmth to a quiet, close-in evening.Try: All Saints Estate 2024 Marsanne, or St Leonards Vineyard 2022 Durif.

Sunday Family Lunch:

A wine for Sunday lunch with the family needs to be approachable, food-friendly and effortlessly elegant - something that pleases a range of palates without stealing the spotlight. Try offering a fresh, dry Rosé that feels relaxed yet refined. Bright red-fruit flavours and gentle acidity make it easy to enjoy across a long table and versatile enough to pair with everything from salads and seafood to roast chicken and shared antipasto, keeping the mood light and sociable.Try: St Leonards Vineyard 2023 Rosé.

Neighbourhood Drop-In:

Unplanned guests and minimal prep time, but still want to impress without trying too hard? A sparkling red ticks the box, with its lively sparkle, juicy dark-fruit flavours and a hint of sweetness that strikes a playful, crowd-pleasing note. Its effervescence and rich berry character make it a great conversation starter as something a little out of the ordinary - the kind of bottle that instantly lifts the mood and turns a quick hello into a relaxed, stay-for-another-glass moment.Try: All Saints Estate NV Bubbly Shiraz.
