25.01.2022 Rosé and sauv blanc = already on high rotation. So which wines will put that spring in your step? Our top picks are a crisp riesling, a fresh chardonnay and an interesting sparkling (like our 'Mongrel of a Dog' red bubbly which is a blend of red vintages from 2008-2014). What wine will you be drinking this spring? #contentiouswinetip
