National interior fitout company Unita recently hosted an intimate wine tasting event for hospitality designers, business owners and project managers in Sydney.

Held at Vini Divini Wine Lab in the CBD, the evening was led by owner and host Philippe Gilbert, who took guests through a selection of wines from lesser-known regions. The tasting focused on varietals and winemaking traditions that are not often seen on Australian wine lists, with several pours coming from Eastern Europe.

Highlights included a Krakhuna from Georgia, an indigenous varietal traditionally aged in amphora, with stone fruit notes and a saline finish. Guests also sampled a Turkish blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Boğazkere and Öküzgözü, along with a Cabernet–Saperavi blend from Moldova, a country gaining renewed attention in the international wine scene.

Representatives from Luchetti Krelle, Bas&Co, Pony Design Co. and Mode Design attended the evening, alongside hospitality operators and project leaders from across the industry.

With hundreds of bottles lining the walls, shared plates on the table and wines selected for their regional stories, the event created an easy setting for conversation. Guests spoke about hospitality, travel, culture and the role of food and drink in bringing people together.

For Unita, the evening was a chance to connect with the hospitality design community in a setting that reflected the industry it works within. Rather than a formal presentation or panel, the event centred on the simple experience of sitting around a table, trying something new and talking with people across the sector.
