With an emphasis on showcasing quality Australian and imported wines, our Sommelier has crafted an impressive wine list to complement our award-winning food menu that celebrates the flavours of Tropical North Queensland.
Our wine room features 210+ labels from renowned Australian wineries like Pike’s, Longview, and Leeuwin Estate, alongside boutique gems like Munda and Save Our Souls. Plus, experience the unique French flair of De Beaurepaire wines, our longstanding partner crafting exquisite wines in the heart of Rylestone.
The wine list is a constant work in progress and its contents are re-visited on a weekly basis, keeping the offering vibrant, creative, with depth and nuances. Join our Wine Appreciation class in the wine room as part of our 21+ signature inclusions & experiences.

Designed to compliment the exquisite tropical surrounds, our cocktail list compromises of aromatic and fruity cocktails, aperitifs, martinis and mocktails.
