Our Los Hermanos range was created with one thing in mind... bringing people together around great food, great wine and great conversation.

That is why it is the perfect match for our Noite Brasileira dinners every Friday night throughout July.

Inspired by the vibrant flavours and relaxed spirit of South America, the Los Hermanos wines are fresh, expressive and incredibly food friendly. They complement the bold spices, smoky barbecue, seafood and slow cooked dishes that make Brazilian cuisine so memorable.

Join us this July and experience the perfect pairing of authentic Brazilian cuisine with wines crafted to bring every dish to life.

How do chefs and winemakers decide what goes with what?

Wine pairing is not about finding the most expensive wine or the richest dish. It is about balance.
Sometimes a wine mirrors flavours on the plate. Sometimes it provides contrast. A bright, fresh wine can lift a rich dish, while a fuller-bodied wine can stand up to bold flavours.

When developing a pairing, our chefs and winemakers sit down together, tasting, discussing and refining until both the food and wine shine.

And yes, sometimes pairings fail. A wine can overpower a dish, or a dish can completely mask the wine. The best pairings are the ones where neither steals the show.

That is where our restaurant team comes in. Whether you are enjoying a glass or choosing a bottle for the table, our staff are always happy to guide you towards a wine that complements your meal and suits your taste.

The goal is simple: make both taste even better together than they do on their own.

A match made in culinary heaven... Duck & Pinot Noir. 🦆🍷

There is a reason this pairing has stood the test of time.
Duck is rich and flavourful, with just enough natural fat to call for a wine that can cut through the richness without overpowering it. Enter Pinot Noir.

With its bright red berry fruit, gentle tannins and vibrant acidity, Pinot Noir complements the savoury flavours of duck beautifully. It lifts the dish, balances the richness and enhances every bite, rather than competing with it.
Whether it is crispy skin, slow roasted or perfectly pink, duck and Pinot Noir are proof that some pairings are simply meant to be.

Join us at Crittenden Restaurant and discover why this classic combination continues to win hearts... and appetites.

Meet the Pinocchio range.

Wine should be delicious, approachable and just a little bit fun. Our Pinocchio collection celebrates exactly that, with whimsical labels that are as full of personality as the wines inside.

From crisp Pinot Grigio and vibrant Rosato to refreshing Prosecco and juicy Sangiovese, every bottle tells its own quirky story. They are wines made for long lunches, spontaneous gatherings and those moments that do not need a special occasion.

The labels might catch your eye, but it is what is in the bottle that will have you coming back for another glass.
Which character are you taking home?
