BOOTLEGGERS WINE TASTING

After a wine induced collaboration with Sydney based wine start-up Bootleggers, where we profiled how Australian men are expressing their personal style and taste through fashion and wine, we finally got a chance to celebrate. The stylish Men In This Town readers who registered for a chance to attend, got to sip on a 2008 Dal Forno Romano Amarone della Valpolicella, which retails at $549 a bottle. It was worth every bit. Thanks for everyone who came out and for the men featured over the past few weeks.

The series focuses on how Australian men are expressing their personal style and taste through fashion and wine.

Fifth up, one of Sydney’s top tailors who knows how to keep it real, Roger Shamoun. We chatted about making his own clothes and why he doesn’t do white.
