Extended Description

In an epic collaboration that combines Myf’s dream for a wine to call her own, with the Australian cultural icon that is cask wine, Happy Sack Productions have launched The Lonely Lady - a delightfully textual and spicy white blend from the Adelaide Hills. Its a total crowd pleaser for an audience of 1 (or more), and the perfect beverage to sip on whilst listening along to Our Place. Cheers!

You can find more information about The Lonely Lady here.
