Lamborghini roars into Australian wine market

 

When you hear the name Lamborghini you probably think of luxury cars, not wine. 

But the Lamborghini family has its own wine collection, which is now on sale in Australia for the first time. 

Direct from the Lamborghini family vineyards in Umbria, Italy, a range of luxe wines is aiming to drive sales. 

The daughter of company founder Ferruccio Lamborghini, Patrizia Lamborghini, is passionate about the success of the winery and says that the link with the land connects her to her father.

"From these vines, my father's name lives on," she says. "I believe he would be so proud to see what we have produced."


The wines are already sold in the United States, the UK and across Europe. 



Exclusive importer and distributor of Lamborghini Wines Australia and founder of Bon Vivant Global Matt Hanson says he believes the wines will find a niche. 


"The Lamborghini range is luxe like we've never seen," he says. "Perfect for an A-list yacht party or a fancy dinner date, a Lamborghini wine offers the highest quality produce paired with an exhilarating and unique customer experience. 


"From buying single bottles to box sets, we have thought about all the finer details. [Buyers can] make a statement and a lifetime memory with Lamborghini Wine."


The launch range includes: 

#   Metodo Classico Vintage Brut and Rose (Bio/organic)

#   Gold Brut

#   Platinum Brut

#   DJ Brut 

#   Titano Cabernet Sangiovese

#   Campoleone Sangiovese Merlot

#   Torami Cabernet Sangiovese

#   Era Sangiovese

#  Trescone Cabernet Merlot Sangiovese

A little slice of Umbria in rural Tasmania

 

Meet a casual Italian-accented restaurant in a small town in southern Tasmania where the flavours are bold and the prices very fair.

Welcome to Osteria at PettySessions, in an old court house on the banks of the Huon River in the hamlet of Franklin, around 45 minutes south of Hobart.

It's the perfect lunch destination for anyone on a day trip, or a good dinner choice for anyone staying in the Huon, where dining choices can sometimes be limited. We were staying just down the road at the excellent The Little Seed Studio. 

Osteria at PettySessions at has a clear focus on fresh Tasmanian ingredients - with a wallchart listing all their local suppliers.


Martino Crippa and Sofia Panfili - both originally from Umbria - are known for their exceptional pasta dishes and are open Wednesday to Saturday 12pm-3pm and 5pm-8:30pm.

The couple has just returned from a trip to visit family in Italy and in possession of some new recipe ideas.


Think dishes like house-cured salumi or seafood croquettes; luscious meatballs in a traditional sauce or ravoili with prawns, lemon and chilli. All delicious and beautifully presented.


Osteria is fully licensed with a good selection of local wines, as well as some Italian imports. Sofia can advise on your wine selection.

The desserts list is tiny, but tempting. 

Highly recommended.

Osteria at Petty Sessions: 3445 Huon Highway Franklin, TAS. (03) 6204 2706.
