Open Bottle Society

23 October: Same grapes. Different worlds
Which side are you on? This Friday, Janni & Amandah bring Old World and New World expressions to the table. Through three selected wines, they’ll explore how place, climate and winemaking shape what ends up in your glass.
 

6 November. Rhône Rebels
Not all rebels break the rules. Some make great wine. From the Northern Rhône slopes to the bold blends of the south.
 

13 November. The Price Is Wrong
Can you really taste the price tag? Three wines at three price points, tasted blind. Does the most expensive bottle deserve the spotlight?
 

20 November. Nebbiolo Unleashed
Pale in colour. Powerful in character. From Piemonte to Barolo and Barbaresco, one grape with endless possibilities.
 

27 November. The Unusual Suspects
Great wines don’t always come from familiar places. Three unexpected bottles that deserve the spotlight.
 

4 December. Champagne Problems
Life’s too short for ordinary bubbles. Three Champagnes, three personalities, from timeless classics to new discoveries.
 

11 December. Big Bottle Energy
Some things are simply better in magnum. Bold choices and wines made for sharing, in formats that deserve extra attention.
 

18 December. The Last Pour of 2026
Saving the best for last? Not our style. One final Friday before Christmas, three special bottles and no reason to leave the good stuff in the cellar.
