Your Aussie Favorites Have a New Home!

Enjoy our wine? Check out Winery Philippines, Manila’s trusted global online cellar door which allows you to mix and match wines from all over the world including your Aussie favorites!

 

Winery Philippines was first conceived in 2016 by a group of passionate wine lovers, who wanted to drastically improve access to good quality wine for Filipinos, as well as the way it is marketed and sold. Their goal is to bring our customers and community the best possible quality of wine in the Philippines at the best possible price. They do this by focusing on sourcing wines from regions and wineries that have excellent quality, but are a little less known.

 

They have free Metro Manila shipping, so you can taste, swirl, and enjoy quality wine in your own home.

New Wines from Orange: Printhie

Printhie Vineyards

“Great wine is made in great vineyards and great vineyards require thoughtful planning.

From the outset Printhie Wines has worked to produce highly coloured and flavoured fruit, by firstly selecting the warm west facing site, for the Printhie vineyard.

Planting in 1996 represented a diversification from our traditional farming enterprise with an initial 25 acres developed.” – Printhie website

“Printhie can fairly claim to be the premier winery of the Orange region. “ – James Halliday

Printhie Mountain Range Merlot 2015

Php 980

Unlike a lot of merlots, there is good aromatic intensity in a wine with plenty of character. Ripe fruit shows red berries, cassis, a hint of floral, almost turkish delight & subtle cedar from oak maturation. A firm structure with fine tannins carry the flavours through to the finish. The balance is spot-on allowing for immediate enjoyment. Distinctly varietal. – Printhie Wines

 

Printhie Mountain Range Sauvignon Blanc 2015

Php 930

Orange region sauvignon blanc is quite distinctive and Orange is one of Australia’s leading region for the variety. This wine exhibits unmistakable sauvignon blanc aroma and flavour. Intense, lifted fruit in the passionfruit, floral, citrus spectrum with a cut grass edge to it. But a few winemaking techniques have added to the mid-palate weight and texture. Balanced acidity provides freshness and length. The extra maturation time has done wonders by avoiding shrill acidity and enhancing depth of flavour. – Printhie Wines

We have added an exciting new varietal to our range!

We’re excited to announce that we just brought in another popular wine from Chrismont!

recipe-pizza-barbera

The 2014 La ZONA Barbera exhibits a rich purple with crimson edges and fragrant aromas of blackberries, plums and spice. As a medium-bodied wine, the La Zona Barbera has great intensity in the glass. The palate is full; spicy plumy, with blackberry and chocolate notes, nicely rounded out by toasty vanilla oak, balanced by mouth-watering acidity and fine tannins. The wine is ideally paired with tomato based pasta dishes, slow-cooked lamb shanks, braised veal or pizza. Drink now or cellar to 2019+.
