Mother’s Day only comes around once a year and this year is unlike no other, we’ve experienced before. Not being able to gather the whole family together or head out to our favourite restaurants doesn’t need to be all doom and gloom.
This year let’s make mum’s first #ISO Mother’s Day one to remember and this can be organised from the comfort of your own home with these creative ideas.
For many mum’s there is nothing more exciting than having our nearest and dearest organise a wonderful meal for us to enjoy. So, why not create a wonderful at-home restaurant with the kids and set the scene creating the perfect atmosphere incorporating a make-at-home menu, candles, and music.
If your mum is currently isolating alone and separated due to Covid 19 then why not have a virtual High-Tea, watch a movie together over a nice bottle of wine, which can all be delivered to her. Sending something will not only give her a beautiful surprise but will create a lasting memory.

Mum’s rejoice! Terrason’s Aligoté pet nat from the King Valley is a delight to drink – citrusy fresh, floral, and gently bubbly.
From the next generation of Juniper Estate, comes Higher Plane. We have been loving the entire range of these wines from Margaret River, and we’re sure you will love this Forest Grove Chardonnay – white peach, pear, and a lick of spicy oak.
If you think it’s just the South of France that makes great rosé, think again. Yangarra are making killer rosé out of the McLaren Vale. Crisp, dry and as close to summer as we are getting anytime soon.
Juicy juicy Grenache from Seppeltsfield to put a smile on your face. This Barossa Grenache is a celebration of fruit, perfumed red berries are fresh herbs – we like it with a light chill.
