Vanguardist Wines Public Tasting Thursday 9th July 4pm – 6pm

An exceptional tasting of Vanguardist wines from South Australia. Ryan Kearney from Viticult Distribution will guide you through these outstanding boutique wines.

Vanguardist officially launched in South Australia in 2014 — though its first release surfaced in the Hunter Valley — with two painstakingly crafted, single-vineyard expressions. Two wines made from what founder Michael deemed to be the finest varieties, grown in the best soils across the state’s most compelling sub-regions. This is the essence of the ‘V’ obsession: an unwavering commitment to quality that has placed Vanguardist wines in Australia’s most respected independent bottle shops, bars, and the private collections of discerning sommeliers.

Over the years, the Vanguardist focus has both broadened and deepened, uncovering new sites of intrigue with the same degree of captivation. The once playful and exploratory La Petite Vanguard range — a reflection of founder Michael’s experimental spirit — has now evolved. In its place comes Botanic: a refined collection born from the same curiosity, but with greater emphasis on precision, purity, and site expression. A natural progression that complements the signature V range, representing both a deepening of intent and a sharpening of identity.
