Handpicked Wines and the Studd Siblings have partnered to offer a unique wine and cheese pairing exclusively for delicious Month Out.

Two of the wine world’s great middle weights will battle for cool climate supremacy in the Battle of the South wine flight.

Winemaker Peter Dillon has chosen four of his favourite Chardonnay and Pinot Noir wines from Handpicked’s sustainably managed vineyards in Victoria and Tasmania to showcase the strengths and differences of each region and vineyard.

For American Express delicious. Month Out, our sommeliers have paired Pete’s wines perfectly with four unique imported cheeses by Ellie and Sam Studd, aka the Studd Siblings.

The side-by-side tasting of award-winning wines includes two new wines from Handpicked’s Tasmania vineyards - the 2019 Collection Tasmania Chardonnay, which won a gold medal at the 2020 Royal Hobart Wine Show (the only show it entered last year, due to COVID cancellations!), and a rare and unique single vineyard wine from Auburn Road Vineyard in the Tamar Valley.

They will be pitted against a Chardonnay from the Yarra Valley and a single vineyard Pinot Noir from Capella Vineyard on the Mornington Peninsula. “I couldn’t be more excited about the wines from our Tasmanian vineyards, but the Yarra Valley is one of Australia’s great Chardonnay regions and our Capella Vineyard Pinot Noir wines continue to impress everyone, including the judges in Australia’s best wine shows, where it consistently wins gold medals.”

Handpicked Battle of the South for delicious. Month Out:

• Handpicked Collection Chardonnay, Tasmania - Matched with Le Dauphin Double Crème

• Handpicked Collection Chardonnay, Yarra Valley - Matched with Comte

• Handpicked Single Vineyard Pinot Noir, Auburn Road Vineyard, Tasmania - Matched with Pont L’Évêque

• Handpicked Single Vineyard Pinot Noir, Capella Vineyard, Mornington Peninsula - Matched with Camembert Le Conquerant
