Melbourne’s First Immersive Wine Destination has Arrived
Winery and the Melbourne CBD are two locations we’d never imagine in the same sentence…until now. Melbourne Winery is the CBD’s newest destination to explore wine in a location where wineries and Melbourne’s city culture collide. This is no ordinary winery experience. The cellar door, rolling vineyards and charming farmhouse is replaced with a wine lab, a cheese room, an oyster bar, and rotating art exhibitions that spark curiosity and keep you on your toes.
This isn’t a tasting room. Nor is it simply an urban cellar door. This is a bold, innovative reinvention of the classic winery experience that’s been imagined for the city it lives in. Let your wine choices take the lead and watch food pairings follow suit—not the other way around. Melbourne Winery’s Launch collection features 32 varietals spanning three categories: the Essentials, Elevated Classics and Indulgence, a range with a bottle to mark every occasion.
Step inside to discover what makes Melbourne Winery so uniquely Melbourne.

May Is Basically Wine Month, So Let’s Drink Accordingly
May isn’t just another month—it’s an open invitation to drink well and often, with three international wine days giving us all the excuse we need. Mark your calendars: Sauvignon Blanc Day (2nd May), Chardonnay Day (23rd May), and International Wine Day (25th May). That’s basically a month-long toast—and we’re here for it.
If you’re looking for where to celebrate, Vinesmith—Melbourne’s best new wine bar and restaurant—is the place to raise a glass (or three). For Sauvignon Blanc Day, start with the 2024 Blue Pyrenees Estate Sauvignon Blanc. Think pale straw with green flashes, and a nose full of lychee, gooseberry, lemongrass, and delicate white blossoms. Bright, crisp, and damn easy to love. Just $22 a glass of joy.
Then, for Chardonnay Day, go big with the 2020 Glenlofty Estate Reserve Chardonnay—a properly serious wine at $35. Handpicked from old vines, fermented with wild yeast in French oak, aged with care. It’s creamy, textured, and a bit luxurious—exactly how Chardonnay should be.
No matter the day, May is all about pouring something good. Drink up.

And now we officially have bragging rights to anyone who argues Melbourne’s pizza isn’t some of the best around, because four of Melbourne’s pizzerias have been ranked amongst the world’s best! The Italians have been working hard, eating their way around the pizzas of the Asia Pacific, and the judges have announced who has made the cut for the 50 Top Pizza 2025 list.
So, which Italian restaurants should you head to for a slice, you ask? Pascoe Vale South’s Shop 225 ranked number four on the list, leaping 27 places up the ladder compared to the previous year. Here, you’ll find authentic Neopolitan-style pizzas, premium ingredients and bursting flavours. Plus, it’s the first restaurant to receive accreditation from Coeliac Australia for its gluten-free options!
48h Pizza e Gnocchi Bar came next, securing a well-deserved spot in the rankings at number 12. Named after the 48-hour fermentation process that gives its pizza dough a light, airy texture with the perfect balance of chew and crunch, this spot is all about quality and tradition. Il Caminetto and +39 Pizzeria are the other two Melbourne pizzerias that ranked in the top 50, coming in 32nd and 33rd place respectively.
