We are nearly at the end of 2025 - a year which opened my eyes to the great and vast world of wine, and a year that proved true, great cinema isn’t going anywhere.

You can see my highlights of 2025 on my website. Happy holidays. 🍷🍿✨

Introducing... 5 Minute Matches! In only a few words, I’ll take five movies, and find five wines to match with them – as a quick way to show you what I have been watching and/or drinking recently.

Guys... did I tell you I passed my WSET Level 2 with Distinction? 👀🍷

New post will be out soon!

Friends, I have officially just come out of my WSET Level 2 exam. I cannot say I did the absolute best - I struggled quite a bit with the region names - however, I have confidence that I have passed. 🍷 I will let you all know when I have my results!

Yesterday, I completed WSET Lv 1, however in all honesty it was a lot more daunting than I expected - particularly the geography and naming element. 🍷

I have a lot to learn, but that's what I'm here for!

As a self-proclaimed patriot, I knew I couldn’t back down from the idea of showing off an Australian film and an Australian wine in one go. Today, we are looking at a staple in this viewing catalogue – George T. Miller’s The Man From Snowy River.

Friends, I have some wonderful news! I am taking a new step into my wine journey, and I will soon be starting a WSET qualification.

I will be completing my Level 1 Award in Wine in early June. Watch this space! 🍷📜

Hello everyone! I just wanted to apologise for the lack of content since our first review in February. My personal life has kicked into full gear since then. 😁

I have another review almost finished, however I am waiting to fully recover from my current cold before I drink any alcohol.

Soon! 🎞🍷

Porco Rosso is a beautiful and stylised character study into guilt, rebellion and staying true to what you believe - and a medium-bodied, savoury Italian red fits perfectly in that world. 🐷✈️🇮🇹

Welcome to Wines for Widescreens! 🎞️🍷

This is a personal project I am pursuing so I can not only retain my knowledge and skills of writing and filmmaking, but to make a start on my newest endeavor – wine.
