Ever found yourself in a Coles or Woolies (now Endeavour) bottle shop and marvelled at the massive range of wine under $30? At Vino Cammino, precisely 0 bottles from our range retail under $30. We think much of the difference is driven by ownership. Thanks to an excellent resource maintained by The Real Review (link in comments), we know that that there are over 400 wine brands owned by supermarkets and other large corporate groups in Australia. Endeavour alone own 227. Coles have 84. And each of those brands have their own range of bottles, so it’s likely that thousands of bottles on big brand Australian bottle shop shelves are owned by a small handful of companies (but of course, you won’t read about it on the labels). So, how do you think those companies encourage (or make) decisions in the production of those wines? How would they prioritise cost, durability, and volume against sustainability, quality and complexity of flavour? Are they crafting a wine to offer the best expression of grape and place or something calculated at the last quarterly meeting of the finance, analytics and marketing teams? Of course, some nice wines are made at low price points. It's just hard to find them in a tidal wave of blandness disguised by clever labels. All of the wines at Vino Cammino have one owner: it’s the winemaker and their family. The pride they take in their vineyards and the wine they send into the world, their role as custodians for future generations, and honouring the memory of generations before them mean every decision they make is designed to create the finest product possible. We’re proud to support their efforts and reckon they are worth every dollar. Life’s too short to drink boring supermarket wine. #whoownsyourwine #therealreview #duopoly #artisanwine

Peregrine Corporation, one of Australia’s top 500 privately-owned companies, is selling three premium freehold convenience retail outlets in South Australia which are expected to generate more than $23 million, according to Burgess Rawson. Exclusively listed with Burgess Rawson’s Jamie Perlinger and Raoul Holderhead, the properties present an exciting opportunity for investors to acquire high-performing assets in prime locations. Peregrine Corporation CFO Michael Dodd said the timing is right to list the assets, which have strong long-term leases in place, making them highly appealing to investors. The pending sales will enable the company to recycle its capital into other avenues. “South Australia’s commercial real estate sector is performing well, with the removal of stamp duty playing a key role in its demand,” he said.
