Refreshingly good
and naturally light,
the Brown Brothers
Refreshingly Light
range celebrates
everything wine lovers know and
love about classic white wine styles
like Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon
Blanc; racy Dry Rosé and Australia’s
favourite sparkling, Prosecco but
with a slight twist: They are all lower
in alcohol.
These fruit-driven varietals are
vibrant, zesty and fresh. Made for
mindful drinkers looking to reduce
their alcohol intake without sacrificing
flavour, the Refreshingly Light
styles are best enjoyed across the
warmer months; chilled in an ice
bucket, ready to be served to family
and friends. The range has been
designed to match a variety of picnic
favourites including fresh natural
oysters, gourmet sandwiches, BBQ
meats, charcuterie boards, salads and
soft cheeses. Wine drinkers can relax
and enjoy Refreshingly Light with a
clear mind, a social conscience and
without fear of overindulging.
Brown Brothers Refreshingly Light
is available in Dan Murphy’s and BWS
stores Australia-wide.

We can call ourselves a true cosmopolitan
world city and be proud of it.
We should treasure the stories and
preserve our heritage, but we should
continue to progress. There is no
problem with new-culture; new-food
or new-dress, what is important is that
everyone should swim with the tide of
change not against it.
WHAT IS PARRAMATTA’S BEST KEPT
SECRET? Our heritage.
Barry from Granville thinks Christmas
shopping has been a lot easier
this year, partly thanks to what we’ve
all been through in 2020. “It just
seems like the rush isn’t there this
year... people are polite and taking their time. It
is a great show of respect,” he said.

We’re flabbergasted at how many
people are spreading misinformation
about the COVID-19 vaccines. False
stories are doing the rounds, creating
unnecessary fear in the community.
By all means, do your research, but beware the
conspiracy theorists.
