“As a light white I would suggest Groiss ‘Gemischter Satz’ which is a lot of German words for field blend! It’s Riesling, gruner veltliner, Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc and so many others. Or if you’d like something Aussie the Forest Hill ‘Block 2’ Riesling is lovely too. It has a touch of residual sugar but only enough to be coating on the palette, not sweet. Or a red I’d go for a juicy Gamay like Ministry of Clouds”
