  • Plain or with fruit

    My LO when she 1st started on food loved this. As she got a bit older i started to add fruit to give her some more texture and flavour so its still one of her favourite breakfasts.

    Cerelac has a good texture, smooth and not too gluggy. Max seemed to like the taste and we tasted it make sure. Max ate hungrily then stopped when he was filled. Easy to prepare and no nasties in it.

    My nephew loved this cereal and took to it easily. His appetite has increased and it’s so good to see him love having breakfast. His mum adds some fruit purée to this cereal as well.

    Cerelac baby rice is definitely very convenient and easy to use and make for your little ones as they start their journey of starting solid foods.

    My LO loved this as his first food, he ate it regularly as breakfast – it was so quick and easy to make and as he got older it became more textured.. we did BLW so it was nice for him to have some sort of soft food too, I knew he was eating something well.

    Initially my son didn’t like the “little bits” in it. But has gotten use to it and loves it. He will often go to the cupboard in the afternoon and bring the box to me. So I’ll wip up a small bowl for a treat snack.

  • Good start for a bub

    Great easy way to start your bub on solids. In easy to use convenient packaging. The rice cereal can be made up with cooled boiled water, formula and you can add some purees such as apple or pears to sweeten it. You could even add some sweet potato for a different flavour or texture. It is a super affordable product and is enjoyed by my baby.

  • Really good for my baby

    My daughter really liked eating this at 9 months but around 13 months she stopped eating it. I would highly recommend it for baby ages. She usually likes plain food but didn’t like anything mushy after a while. It must have been the texture. I will be using this for my baby on the way.

  • Excellent source of nutrition for young ones.

    I tried Cerelac Baby Rice cereal on all 3 of my children. Honestly at the start it didn’t get taken well by them they had to get used to it. After awhile 2 of my children loved it mixed with fruit puree. My daughter however never took to the taste of it unfortunately, but I would recommend this product as its great for baby, its cheap to buy and great nutrition for them.

    Easy to use and worked perfectly to fill my little ones belly. Would go down a treat with some banana mashed in, otherwise it would be too bland for my picky eater.

  • A quick convinient pack of baby first food

    Its a good food on the go. Very easy to prep and can be mixed with other food puree such as avocado, pumpkin or banana.
    However my daughter does not really like rice cereal so it was not a big hit for her. Overall its still a good product.
    Would be great if there is small sachet – 1 portion size for travels

‘A Beautiful Adelaide Blend With A Lighter Alcohol Content!’

For lighter wines that still taste like the real deal, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened range is quickly becoming a go-to. These bottles bring all the flavour with noticeably less alcohol, which is why everyone’s falling in love with them.

Best SIPS’ Chapel Hill Enlightened Wines review team put the Rosé and Pinot Grigio through their paces, and the feedback was unanimous: both are fresh, light and perfect for summer sipping without the unwanted morning crogginess.

A rosé with summer written all over it

Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Rosé is bright, crisp and fruity, hitting all the right notes without tipping into the “too sweet” zone. It’s the kind of bottle you reach for at a casual barbecue or any get-together where you want something delicious but easygoing.

It’s exactly this balance of lightness and full flavour in an affordable bottle that has so many fans raving.

“Light, refreshing and honestly just feels like a little moment of peace in a glass. The flavour is this perfect mix of crisp + fruity without being too sweet — literally the kind of rosé you can sip while you finally sit down after a long day.”

Women trying Chapel Hill Enlightened Rosé.
A summer staple … on the lighter side

“Too many of these low alcohol wines just don’t taste enough like the real deal-but this is a sure fire exception. Beautifully refreshing, with a touch of sweetness that’s not overwhelming. A gorgeous colour too, which is a bonus- after all, we also drink either our eyes! Add into the mix a reasonable price point- this rose is a winner!”

“I love a nice glass of Rosé and the Chapel Hill Enlightened Rosé did not disappoint! It’s really light and refreshing and tastes like a really expensive wine. I love that this wine is really affordable, so I can enjoy a beautiful Rosé without breaking the bank more often. Definitely give this one a try!”

If your warm-weather wine rack needs an affordable new staple, this is it.

A Pinot Grigio you’ll be buying again (and again!)

For the white lovers, Chapel Hill’s Enlightened Pinot Grigio is a solid everyday white that ticks all the boxes: crisp, clean, food-friendly and affordable.

Our taste-testers repeatedly praised how balanced and versatile it feels, whether chilled on its own or alongside simple meals and casual gatherings.

“We love a white to pair with our spring/summer lunches and especially our seafood. This option ticked all the boxes …”

A versatile sip you’ll keep reaching for

“I enjoyed the first sip to the last of this Pinot. Anything with pear and citrus is something I want to try and this lived up to that, but with a lighter alcohol content – which I appreciate! Enjoyed over dinner, it paired really nicely with the food I was eating. This wine is something I’d happily recommend to others.”

“The wine offered just the right balance of fruity flavours – fresh and vibrant, but never overpowering or too sharp. It paired beautifully with both our light lunches and dinner, making every meal feel a bit more special. I also appreciated how crisp and refreshing it tasted, perfect for unwinding and enjoying good company. Definitely a Pinot Grigio I’d reach for again.”

Your lower-alcohol go-to

The team rates Enlightened wines 4.34 out of 5 and recommends them for anyone on the hunt for flavour-forward wine with less alcohol. They’re bright, modern and made for the kind of moments where you’d love a glass, but still want to feel good afterwards.

Find Chapel Hill Enlightened at Dan Murphy’s right now for $17.99 each.

  • The warmer weather tends to make alcohol go to my head faster – I’m not a big drinker, but just for that reason I’d seriously consider a low alcohol wine. The Pinot Grigio particularly sound as if I might enjoy it. I might well buy a bottle or two for Christmas.

    Reply

  • Looks delicious, would be keen to try their wines based off the reviews. Love anything local and the light wine is just an extra win – low alcohol content would be fab for nights with friends where we all still have to drive home afterwards so would be buying for that type of event!

    Reply

  • Chapel Hill Wines do have quite a good reputation. I like the fact that it is low alcohol content. Personally, I like a very sweet wine but many would like these as they are not so sweet. I wish them well with sales and think it’s good they are doing something about lowering alcohol level.

    Reply

  • Thanks for sharing this review. It sounds that the taste is good, the price is good and the alcohol content is really low indeed. I do like the fact that they’re light. One of the things I don’t like when you’re drinking a couple of glasses that it fills you up and it affects your appetite

    Reply

  • I appreciate all the reviews and think this is an excellent way to get your brand out there and known.

    Reply

  • I like the sound of the Pinot Grigio and will look out for it next time I’m at the bottle shop.

    Reply

  • I just asked the forum for recommendations on zero alcohol, but this is an attractive option as well! I do enjoy a Rose, so will try this one after all the positive reviews. It’s a shame they don’t have a sparkling in their collection yet! Would have been prefect for all the celebrating at this time of year.

    Reply

  • I dislike rose, but the pinot grigio sounds like it might suit me. To be honest, the alcohol content doesn’t bother me all that much – I rarely drink more than a glass or two anyway – but it would probably be nice from a general health point of view to know I’m consuming less alcohol.

    Reply

  • This sounds like the perfect glass. I do love being able to have a few drinks and not be all over the place about me. And as a bubbly girlie from Adelaide myself, I’m sure I’ll find a lot to like about this drop. Crisp and not too sweet, I’m sold and will have to try it.

    Reply

  • It was the first time for me hearing about the chapel hill brand. And i still recall when i picked up the Pinot Grigio from my local, the staff there actually stopped me and said i picked a winner! She said that it was probably the best Pinot they had available to sell.

    Reply

  • I’ve heard a lot of good things about Chapel Hill wines and the reviews are always good. I like that they have low alcohol range as I like to have a few glasses when I finally get to have one. Not being too sweet is a bonus that suits me well.

    Reply

  • The idea of having a lower alcohol content wine without compromising taste is really exciting. There’s nothing worse than feeling “under the weather” from the effects of alcohol. This lovely wine ticks all the boxes, lower alcohol and a refreshing flavour. I’m keen to get the Pinot Grigio in my cart and into my fridge!

    Reply

  • This wine sounds delightful and really refreshing to enjoy on a summer afternoon. I love that it tastes fresh and crisp and still has the same punch as other wine. It sounds like an absolute delight. I will have to give it a try next time i am at the bottle shop looking for some wine.
