Pop the bubbly, it’s Friday! I couldn’t go past this bottle of Raventos i Blanc 2017 Cava on the Good Pair Days site for my subscription box this month. It’s one of the more expensive bottles at $38 – however after visiting the Penedes region (the home of Cava) in 2011, I knew it was…
Here’s a good excuse to buy some wine online: if you use the code “travellingcorkscrew” you’ll get $23 off your first order with Good Pair Days. Which is where you’ll find this Fetherston 2017 Dolcetto Rosé from the King Valley in Victoria.

After trying and loving the Allora! Prosecco recently, I was excited to try this 2019 white blend of theirs. In the blend there is: Arneis Riesling Sauvignon Blanc Moscato Verduzzo
