  • Melissa and Doug have the BEST products!

    I purchased some Melissa and Doug puzzles for my 4 year old from Ozsale. I needed some puzzles for her that were a bit higher in difficulty and I wanted some that were wooden so they would last and not get bent (or chewed up by the baby)

    I have used Ozsale before, and when I purchased these puzzles from them they did take awhile to receive (about 3.5 weeks) but I have since purchased from Ozsale and their shipping speed has greatly improved.

    Melissa and Doug have fabulous quality items, my daughter also received a magnetic dress up doll for her birthday – it is one of her most played with presents.

  • Wonderful Product for Little Creative Hands

    After seeing this product, and reading the reviews, as an Early Years teacher I just knew I had to try it out. I love the stamps, the designs are just adorable, and can be used to tell stories, make designs, learn about mirror imaging and colour- so versatile in Kindergarten classrooms, as well as in the home. Any product that has an intrinsic ‘pull’ like this is going to foster creativity in children.

  • Qaulity gift

    After purchasing a set of these stamps for my kindergarten kids, they were such a hit that i decided to buy them for my 8 year old niece. She also absolutely loved them. They are so simple to use, both pre-school and older children can use them. Easy to setup and clean which is important for busy households. Definitely recommend them as the perfect gift!

  • great for a rainy day

    Got our stamps out a few times this weekend, being wet horrible weather I was looking for inside activities.
    Couldn’t believe my 2 yr old son played with them for over half an hr, he is normally on the go all the time and doesn’t spend long at an activity but he’s really enjoying these stamps and naming all the different animals and asking about them all.and my 4 year old was grouping them into zoo animals and farm animals really great for both their ages!

Just the right size for young hands to use. So easy to store and put away. The non toxic washable stamp pad made clean up a breeze.

  • Top quality toy

    I find Melissa & Doug toys to be of very high quality, and definitely worth the investment. My daughter used this stamp set at a friends house last week and it kept the two kids amused for ages. It has stood the test of time, and isn’t flimsy like some other brands. We own several other Melissa & Doug toys, and have never been disappointed by their quality or design.
    I can’t currently see this item for sale through OZSALE, but I have bought other items through them. Hassle-free transactions, easy delivery, and great bargain prices. Certainly worth a search on their site to see what their current sales are, and I’m hoping they will stock this brand on sale again soon.

  • Melissa and Doug products great educational products

    My niece and grandchildren love Melissa and Doug products and so do I, they seem to be an old fashioned toy that requires imagination, they are well made and economically priced. They are a toy that is enjoyable to spend time with your children and I keep some puzzles aside for those days when we have horrid weather as time flies when playing with these and it is refreshing to see children playing with something that does not have a screen attached. love these toys and should be more of them.

  • Love Melissa and Doug

    My mum introduced me to Melissa and Doug products. I love their durability and the fact that they are wooden toys. My little girls first puzzle was a Melissa and Doug farm puzzle and zoo puzzle. Even now, at 3, she will still happily sit down and play with her Melissa and Doug products.

    They are long lasting…most things are getting handed down to her little brother now.

  • Love It!

    We bought a Melissa and Doug stamp set awhile ago – the vehicles one and my boys love it. I find that M & D products are so well made. We have a puzzle as well which is such thick wood and also a car carrier which is fantastic. The stamp set is so easy for little ones to use and keeps them occupied for ages. Keep an eye on them though as my two have been known to stamp everything!

  • great entertaining activity

    My 2 year old son loves this. He’s into stamps and I love how easy it is for him to use while I watch over him. The ink takes a little scrubbing to get off but other than that, it’s very good. I bought a couple of them to put away as gifts for other kids too

  • Quality and colourful product for chidlren to play with

    I love wooden durable toys for kiddies which take things back to the old school, before computer screens, its interactive craft and art that you are more likely to hang on the wall and show pride in your children and aids building a positive relationship.

  • Be prepared to wait

    I often buy things from Ozsale as they genuinely offer discounts for top quality items. Melissa & Doug are synonymous with high quality products, but are often out of my price range for presents etc., so this is a match made in heaven. My only criticism is for Ozsale (and to be fair, they state this clearly on their website); once you order from them, it often takes more than 3 weeks for your order to arrive. If you have an upcoming party or event that you are buying something for, make sure it is MORE than a month in advance. Organisation is the key.

  • Always impressed with Melissa and Doug

    I have bought and received numerous Melissa and Doug products over the years and i have never been disappointed. The only thing which is a shame is that we don’t have more of the products available here in Australia. Although a bit dearer than other toys you really get what you pay for.

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.
