Friday Night Footy

Wine Collection

There’s a point in the week when things ease off.

This is the pack for that shift. The siren goes. The night opens up.

Three wines, each with a role:

1 x ‘The Villain’ Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 – structured, steady, in control.
1 x ‘The Rascal’ Shiraz 2023 – generous, smooth, easy company.
1 x ‘Black Ops’ Shiraz Saperavi 2022 – darker, deeper, the one that lingers.
And a beanie for when the temperature drops.

On the couch. Around the table. Mid-argument over a bad call.

Another glass is poured before anyone thinks to check the score.

If it feels like your kind of Friday, set one aside.
