OBP2010 at Jailhouse Grill

Something I have said to myself for a while now is why haven't we opened any avenues with restaurants in our own home town?

Well, I am very happy to see our OBP2010 being taken on by Launceston's Jailhouse Grill! 

The Jailhouse is a place I love - great atmosphere, fantastic people, a surprisingly excellent winelist, and some of the best steak I have enjoyed (I make sure Josh Hammersley is on the grill when I go). The menu has a great variety of dishes.

If there is anywhere that our 2010 Pinot is going to feel at home, it is in a steakhouse!

When you are in Launceston, make sure you visit the Jailhouse Grill! 

(I suggest you get a group together and book the private room!)

A new outlet for Gryphonwood in Hobart!

We are really pleased to see our One Bunch Pinot 2010 being served at the new and exciting Westend Pumphouse!

Westend Pumphouse is a fantastic venue, with it's central island bar and funky décor.

These guys have an awesome layout out front - what used to be a vehicle entry is now a glassed enclave with lounge and espresso bar!

We wish them all the best, and I have a new fav coffee stop for my Hobart trips!

Pinot Unearthed's Sydney dinner a great success!

The guys at Pinot Unearthed hosted their Tassie Pinot Dinner at Fix St James in Sydney this week, and by all accounts so far it was a booming success! The wines were a hit.

OBP2009 tasted well - I heard this from a new and unusual source (for me): tweets!
One of the night's commentators had a tweet link that I thought I would follow (like a trail of bread crumbs). Little did I know that a group of diners at the event were tweeting their way through each wine!

There was a whole sublayer of conversation going on under the table and in peoples' laps...
had I been there, I am sure I would have been shaking my head at these people playing with phones in the middle of a dinner function, despite the fact they were actually saying nice things about our wine!

The irony, eh?

Pure South takes us on!

We are really excited to have the excellent Pure South Restaurant, in Melbourne's Southbank district, take OBP2009 on board!

It was at Pure South that our wine featured in Pinot Unearthed's Pure Tassie wine dinner. Whilst the night was a massive success, Pure South's food was a stand out part of the evening, with reports of the event all raving about their menu.

So, it is extremely pleasing for us to now be involved with Pure South, where our ventures into the greater winosphere first launched.

OBP2009 at Remi de Provence

We very are excited to see our Pinot being picked up by Remi de Provence in Hobart! Remi's establishment is impressive, with wine bar, a fantastic wine centre and the lovely bistro. Remi de Provence specialises in authentic French cuisine.

I have been looking forward to seeing One Bunch Pinot in restaurants, bistros and cafes, as I think the wine such a complement to fine food. We will be working hard to see OBP onto wine lists around the country.

If you visit Remi's, try a glass of our wine and let us know how you go!
