Who will miss this kind of chance to try different varieties of wine from Australia?

" The best wine is the wine that you liked"
says Mattia Mauri

He specializes in Australian and Italian wine to be particular. He recommended a number of Australian wines that are being sold or available at Shopwise. The top-selling brand is Beach Hut, Chain of Fire and Lakefield which cost around Php 200 to almost 600 pesos.

I'm thankful to Shopwise for making our day so special. I've learned 2 new dishes from the cooking lesson with Chef Jee. I was able to know the different variety of wines but I like the Lakefield the most. I enjoyed the Wine and Cocktail Show of Joseph.
