Spicy red fruits, kirsch, and dried herbs dominate this old-vine Grenache. With a decade of age, the tannins have softened beautifully, revealing savory earth and leather nuances. A supple, warming wine that pairs effortlessly with Mediterranean cuisine.

About The Producer

One of Australia’s most iconic producers, d’Arenberg was founded in 1912 in McLaren Vale and remains family-owned, now led by the irrepressible Chester Osborn. Known for its quirky labels, wide-ranging portfolio, and the famous “Dead Arm” Shiraz, d’Arenberg is both deeply traditional and wildly innovative. Today, the winery attracts global attention not just for its wines but also for “The Cube,” a striking five-story architectural landmark dedicated to wine, art, and experience.
