When we talk about international wine at The Liquory, we mean wines made from indigenous grape varieties that are intrinsic to their culture — not international varietals planted elsewhere for export markets, but the grapes that local people actually drink with their food, at their tables and on their holidays.

In Greece, Assyrtiko from Santorini is an absolute must-try — a white grape grown on volcanic soils that produces wines of searing acidity, mineral complexity, and exceptional longevity. If you're looking for a red you can't go past Xinomavro from Naoussa in northern Greece — called the "Barolo of Greece" for its tannic structure and ageing potential. Mavrodaphne is a luscious fortified dessert wine of Patras, made from sun-dried grapes in a style unchanged for centuries.

In Turkey, Bogazkere and Öküzgözü are unique indigenous red varieties from the volcanic highlands of eastern Anatolia. Producing deeply coloured, tannic, spice-driven reds of real quality. Narince whites are coveted for their honeyed, aromatic character. And rosés from the Thrace region rival the best from Provence.

In Lebanon, they feature the storied output of Bekaa Valley estates producing Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and blends of both under conditions of genuine terroir — high altitude, extreme temperature variation, and ancient soils that have grown wine grapes for millennia.

None of these wines are easy to find in Australia. That's exactly why we stock them. Our range is deliberately curated away from the familiar and towards the genuinely interesting — wines that tell a story, wines that make dinner more memorable, wines that you'll be talking about when the bottle is empty.
