Since we met & began buying wine from them in 2011, we’ve been anxious to invite Oz Wines to join us for a wine dinner here at Chez Nous. Oz wines, selected by owner Andrew Bishop, have impressed us and our guests with the quality, value and unique personality that they bring to the table. As Andrew states on his website, his vision and goal as a wine importer is to find
… diligent caretakers of the vine [who] often times represent several familial generations stubbornly clinging to organic, biodynamic and sustainable practices - placing premium value on quality, not quantity - without sacrificing curiosity and respect for contemporary techniques and menus.
We have no doubt that the menu, the wines, and Andrew’s stories and experiences with the growers will combine to make a memorable evening!
