Story on a bottle: We’ll drink to that

‘Wine is one of the most civilized things in the world and one of the most natural things of the world that has been brought to the greatest perfection, and it offers a greater range for enjoyment and appreciation than, possibly, any other purely sensory thing.’ – Ernest Hemingway

Many writers throughout the ages have expressed their fondness for the occasional tipple, crediting wine for their loosened imaginations or fluent prose. In a gesture of mutual appreciation, Melbourne independent winemaker Rory Lane of The Story Wines is raising a glass to the literary arts and partnering with Overland magazine for the Story Wine Prize.
