Bent Road Wine

Top choice in Brisbane & Around


Switched-on oenophiles know all about this intimate winery and its smart, out-of-the-box drops. These include small batch, experimental wines and wines fermented in traditional Georgian terracotta amphorae. You'll need to book a visit, which will see you schmoozing with the winemakers themselves and sampling the likes of saperavi, marsanne and monastrell rosé in an old timber church from 1901.
