Spotters Fee!
A call to arms to the faithful! Well, fellow oliveers. Do you know a great deli or cafe that you think should be stocking our product? If so, have I got a deal for you. Call in and speak to the owner (nicely) and invite them to stock our product or you will never darken their doors again - or something like that. Pass on the business name and owners details to me and I will encourage them (send the boys around) to stock Bunnyconnellen products! Once I have taken $1000 in orders from them I will invite you to claim $100 worth of Bunnyconnellen products of your choice. How about that?
Go to it fellow oliveers!

2009 - 'Bird in the Bush' Rosé - $16
A great drop crafted for Queensland’s balmy days and nights. We consume ours on the deck, pondering our navel and taking in the views of the garden, including our favourites ‘bird in the bush’ water tap.

This makes for an exceptionally refreshing 'spritzer' when topped up with a third sparkling mineral water of your choice. Serve really well chilled with our ‘Siesta’ olives and slivers of triple creamed Brie cheese. Yum…

2006 - 'Wash-house Red' Shiraz - $25
An exciting oak aged Shiraz displaying light garnet hue with a hugely intense cherry and raspberry nose. Delicate secondary aromas of oak and hints of chocolate come through to set this wine into another dimension. Plenty of fresh sweet fruit characters tantalise the palate which finishes with pleasant silky soft tannins on the back palate. Just the right amount of sweetness to be enjoyed with antipasto, light pasta or even solo.

2006 - 'Laneway' Chardonnay (Unwooded) - $20

This is a bold wine made from grapes sourced at the Granite Belt. Big on flavour so don’t mess about; enjoy with a Jumbo Kalamata ‘Earnest’ olives as a tapas or aperitif.
