Wine Drive
EWB Vic Chapter is launching its annual Christmas wine drive!!!
The wines have been carefully selected and are definite crowd pleasers! This year offerings include six labelled and six cleanskins wines. There is something for everyone – different regions, different varieties and different prices. Pick and choose as you please or, if choosing it too hard, buy a mixed dozen and try them all!!
Check out the tasting notes and testimonials of these wonderful wines at:

We truly appreciate the support that we receive from our members. To show our gratitude Vic Chapter are giving you the opportunity to win a mixed case of wine valued at $225 if you are the first member to sell ten cases of wine between now and December 15!! Tell your friends, stock the cellar and ask your company to purchase EWB wine for their Christmas celebrations. This offer is open to all members – register your interest by emailing vic.chapter@ewb.org.au.
