Yesterday, Rollo, Linda and Oscar Crittenden were proud to represent Crittenden Wines at The Real Review Wine Tasting in Brisbane.

It was fantastic to see such a strong turnout from both the wine trade and the public, with the room buzzing from start to finish. We loved sharing our Mornington Peninsula wines, catching up with familiar faces and introducing new people to the Crittenden story.

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by our table. We were thrilled by the response, with our wines receiving wonderful feedback throughout the day.

What is Brazilian food? Tomorrow you can find out!

It is generous, colourful and full of flavour, with influences from Indigenous, African, Portuguese and European cooking. Expect comforting dishes, vibrant spices, coconut, seafood, slow-cooked meats and plenty of food made for sharing.

For our Noite Brasileira Friday nights, Head Chef Brunno Melo has created a menu inspired by the flavours of his homeland.

Begin with warm Pão de Queijo, crisp tapioca and pumpkin croquettes with haloumi and smoked chilli honey, and a fresh palm heart salad.
For the main event, share a rich Moqueca Baiana, a coconut seafood stew with market fish, prawns, mussels and squid, alongside Feijoada Completa, a slow-braised black bean stew with pork ribs, wagyu and chorizo.
