About The Wine
New to Australia is this great value Piemonte white, a tangy succulent number that bursts with citrus and orchard fruits. The mouthfeel is succulent, lingering and medium-weight with some crunchy acidity to bring it all together.
90% Arneis and the rest Sauvignon Blanc, this is a truly representative regional Langhe white.
About Monterustico
The Vaira family are Barolo legends with their GD Vajra and Luigi Baudana wines but for their latest venture they went over the hills to the north into Dogliani, when they purchased the Monterustico estate a few years back.
From The Producer
Fruit from vines aged 12 to 25 years old was harvested by hand in September. It was gently pressed and, after a long fermentation at low temperatures, the wine was aged briefly in stainless-steel tanks and before bottling in March.
It has a captivating nose of orange blossom, lemon zest and yellow fruits. It’s citrusy and salty on the palate, lingering on the finish to leave you with a promise of many unfolding layers. – Giuseppe Vaira

Are there volume discounts? No, our pricing is designed to be the best in market already - no marking up and then discounting down! For very large orders (weddings, etc) we are open to negotiating though. Just give us a call.
Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.
Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.
I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.
Does Different Drop have a physical store? No. Just an a warehouse/office. We occasionally do events however, so sign up to our newsletter or follow us on instagram to stay in the loop.
Can I special order a wine you do not sell? If it’s doable, then we’ll make it happen. Just contact us directly via phone, chat or email and we’ll find out for you right away. Please note that in most cases special orders such as these will need to be in full case lots (6 or 12 bottles).
