🍷 Wine of the Month - May
Calling all villains and vixens… This month we’re pouring the 2018 Villain & Vixen Shiraz from Hentley Farm, a wine that prefers charm over bravado.
Defying the notion that bigger is always better, this stunning Shiraz is all about elegance and allure, with soft, silky tannins, bright fruit and beautifully balanced, complex flavours. A little rebellious, perhaps, but all the more enjoyable for it.
Available to enjoy in the Reagh Bar and The Alcoves alongside our new Winter Menu. ⏩ https://tinyurl.com/TheAlcovesWinterMenu2026

Thank you to our Members and guests who joined us yeterday at the NSW Masonic Club and Castlereagh Boutique Hotel for ANZAC Day.
From luncheon in Cellos to our service in the Reagh Bar, it was a day to pause, remember and come together. The march, pipe band and Last Post continue a long-standing Club tradition, and it was very special to see so many join the procession through to the Cenotaph and commemorative service.
Two-Up followed in the Reagh Bar, bringing everyone together in true ANZAC spirit.
🕯️ Lest We Forget.
