From vineyard to glass, TAP. wines are preserved in stainless steel wine cylinders from the moment it is made, to the moment it is enjoyed. We deliver our cutting-edge cylinders to a handful of hand-picked local and international passionate winemakers, who fill each cylinder with their finest quality wine before sealing them up, perfectly preserving the freshness and full personality in each drop. The cylinders then make their journey to restaurants and bars across Australia where our hand selected wine is poured from custom-designed ceramic towers into the waiting glass of a wine lover who enjoys the quality, flavour, freshness and complexity of the wine, just as the winemaker had intended.
