The tasting table will see regular meet-the-maker sessions for members of Barrelhouse Club, the Cellars' loyalty program.

The store will be managed by industry veteran Nick Minogue, who will showcase independent, craft producers with an Australian focus.

He has secured a cellared private wine collection, and his team has sourced spirits will complement the Hickson Rd gins.
