The Joy Of The Twist-Off

Twist-off wine really doesn't get enough credit.

As we sell this Block 50 Case of Aussie Reds, we think it's as good a time as ever time to remind ourselves why we love twist-off bottles.

Often considered the lesser sibling of wine bottles, twist-off bottles are too frequently cast aside and underappreciated, but when we crack open that seal, we're reminded of the fact that all we had to do was make a simple twist.

The elegance of the quick twist is simple. You don't need a fancy corkscrew. You don't need a fancy bottle stopper. You don't need to tell everyone to duck as you try to open up. You just grab hold, move your wrist, and like that, you've got wine.

So here's to the twist-off. Our love for you is true.

Vendor Details

Cumulus Estate Wines

Founded:
2004
Owner:
Distinguished Vineyards & Wine Partners

Orange, Australia
In the early 1980's some astute and dedicated wine pioneers recognized the cool climate and ideal soils of the Orange region. Orange, along with the Central Ranges have become the largest cool climate region in Australia. The area, alongside Mudgee and Cowra, produces twice the amount of wine as the Hunter Valley. The founders of what is now Cumulus were ambitious, planting a massive 1,000 hectares of vineyard and built a 10,000 ton winery with storage capacity for 8 million liters of wine.
