Our Sweet Red NANNA GELSO is named after Terranzo’s maternal grandmother, Maria. Apart from saying her name with every tasting and bottle sold, her rose is growing in the garden here on the Hill. She left Sicily as a bride of 17, never to return. Like this rose, she put down loving roots in her adopted homeland. salute, Maria! alla prossima tutti!

July 31, 2020

Bit of a South-easterly nipping at the ears of the Little Cellar Rat here on the Hill this morning as we farewell Julius Caesar’s month. Brilliant sun (and a new feathered visitor to the garden) more than make up for that though.

ciao tutti!! The Cafe- Coffee Liqueur is back

July 27, 2020

ciao tutti!  the Little Cellar Rat promised she would post when the CAFE COFFEE LIQUEUR is back and IT’S BACK!!

A great partner for a short black coffee but poured over vanilla ice-cream and topped with a crunch of toasted almond flakes it makes an oh-so-simple and oh-so-delizioso dessert.

Still $30 in that stylish Italian bottle.

Mail orders are simple…. just give the Little Cellar Rat a call 4126 1311  0408 875 305 to arrange posting and credit card details.
