For lovers of wine

Welcome to Mon Somm

Whether you’re looking for a regular supply of your favourite tipples, looking to host an event with a curated wine list or just in need of some wine inspiration, then Mon Somm is for you.

We’re not a subscription service pushing whatever wine we’re getting paid to promote this month. We limit the size of our active customer list.

Mainly, we’re about sharing our love of wine with like-minded souls. If you are a like-minded soul, we look forward to sharing a glass soon.

Louis de Grenelle Ivoire Samur Brut NV

$36.00

Tom says: Think high quality Champagne, without the price tag. That's what this Loire Valley Sparkling is. If it walks like a duck and it quacks like a duck.....

Tasting notes: Aromas of pear, apple, and lime flesh mingle with hints of almond and brioche on the palate. Excellent body and elegant bubbles make this a standout sparkling wine.

Bannockburn 1314 Chardonnay 2025

$38.00

Tom says: Stunning Vic Chardonnay, great texture and balance.

Tasting notes: Crunchy green apple and lemon meet a hint of lemon curd, leading to a rich, well-balanced palate with brioche and great texture, supported by good acidity.

Dalwhinnie Mesa Shiraz 2021

$33.00

Tom says: Awesome Shiraz that will satisfy a Boomer's taste buds. It's also incredibly well balanced!

Tasting notes: Blackcurrant, black cherry, and black pepper jump from the glass, with notes of eucalyptus, game, and leather. Powerful yet cohesive, with excellent acidity and a consistent fruit profile.

Wickhams Road Yarra Pinot Noir 2025

$24.00

Tom says: This Pinot is a cracking combo between muscle and finesse.

Tasting notes: Concentrated dark red fruit, cherries, and raspberries meet a hint of tomato leaf and spice. A Pinot with muscle, with a well-balanced and fruit-forward palate.

Max IGP Mediterranée Rosé 2024

$27.00

Tom says: Exactly what you expect from the South of France. Pale, dry, delicious!

Tasting notes: Raspberries, strawberries, and a hint of spice and herbs make for a classic Southern French rosé. Clean, dry, and exceptionally well-made, with great texture and balance.

It’s not about dictating what you should like; it’s about finding out what you like and exploring the world accordingly.

It’s about sharing a love of wine, discovering new wines, but mainly about enjoying wine.

If you’re the kind of person who heads to the bottle shop and stares at the shelves before buying the usual, choosing the nicest label or picking based on price point, we’re here to save you from that.

We recommend based on what we know about what you already like.

Shop Happy Hour

“Tom’s been recommending wine to me since his days at Tonka and Coda and what I loved was his personal approach that often led to us sharing a glass together at the end of the night. That’s now translated to regular phone calls to deliver wine to our home, which often leads to us sharing a glass together. I’ve introduced him to several friends who also now use him as their port of call when they need some wine.”

—Travis Fegan
“We are battened down in Lorne, far from the crowds, but also far (so far!) from the wine shops. Our cellar is reasonably well stocked but with the repetition of the days, we wanted variety. We wanted something new, something interesting, and something surprising. We’ve been delighted with Tom’s service. The wines are personally delivered with accompanying tasting notes and fascinating anecdotes about the winemakers and the vineyards.”

— Donald Collie
“Tom possesses the sought-after ability to talk about wine in a personal way. Never captive to the hype of wine, he has the discerning palate and knowledge to expertly match food and wine to his guests’ and clients’ preferences.”
