Intro

d'Arenberg d'Arry's Original Grenache Shiraz 2020

This wine is a classic blend of spicy, red berried Shiraz with juicy, fragrant Grenache.

d'Arenberg The Anthropocene Epoch Mencia 2020

An aromatic wine full of pretty flowers and berry aromas, best enjoyed young.

d'Arenberg High Trellis MV Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

A fruity, seductive style with rich, dark fruits, cassis and appealing herbal notes. A deep dark presence in the glass. Blackcurrant, cedar, paprika and leafy notes tell the story of classic McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon. The palate follows the nose with harmonious blackcurrant, capsicum, and stewed mulberries. The multitude of ﬁne persistent tannins.

d'Arenberg The Lucky Lizard Chardonnay 2020

D'Arenberg The Lucky Lizard Chardonnay 2020 displays wafts of melted butter, lemon blossom and custard apple on the nose. The palate offers flavours of Creme Brulee, custard and lemon zest. A classic example of a modern Adelaide Hill Chardonnay. 

d'Arenberg The Stump Jump Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2020

A juicy, vibrant wine full of mulberry and aromatic violets.

d'Arenberg The Bonsai Vine Grenache Shiraz Mourvedre 2019

A stunning, bold GSM blend. A dark vibrant ruby red appearance. The nose is excitingly aromatic with black berries and plums. The wine opens up with a silky texture. A very elegant fusion of black and red fruits, plums, red berries and mulberries all around. A little green freshness, perhaps some sage. The tannins are dry and pronounced. A complex structure, with a very long and savoury finish.

d'Arenberg Tyche's Mustard Shiraz 2012 Back Vintage Release

A unique and luscious wine of great complexity built on a foundation of fine gritty tannins to be enjoyed for many years to come.

d'Arenberg The Fruit Bat Shiraz 2012 Back Vintage Release

A spicy, earthy bouquet; the medium to full-bodied palate has tension and movement, and notes of herb, spice and earth on the finish of a wine with X-factor.

d'Arenberg The Piceous Lodestar Shiraz 2013

A loud concoction of violets, fennel, chocolate, plums and earth. The palate is big and concentrated.

d'Arenberg The Sardanapalian Shiraz 2011 Back Vintage Release

The influence of the two sands found at the surface of this vineyard, Pirramimma Sandstone and Maslin Sand, have a profound effect. The resulting wine has a nose that is fruity and spicy, an endearing mix of mulberry, pepper, plums, red capsicum skin, baking spice and fennel. The palate exhibits more of the same with additional notes of cherry. Liquorice and fennel. There is also an intriguing modelling clay character, undoubtedly stemming from the sandy clay beneath. The mouthfeel is peppery and silky with a very long fruit mineral finish.

d'Arenberg The Sisypheanic Euphoria Shiraz 2012 Back Vintage Release

A wine that shows a true sense of place. Eucalypt notes, a testament to the towering gums surrounding the vineyard. Cool fruit characters of sour cherry, satsuma plum and rhubarb paired with a raft of peppery spices. Sweet but at the same time showing a hint of tartness, leaving the palate bright and vibrant. The mouthfeel is almost Cabernet like, in that there is a distinct and unwavering line of tannin that runs the entire length of the palate, leaving the wine more streamline and long as opposed to plush and blousy. With time in glass a whole new array of purple and red jubey fruits evolve. Perhaps a few edges in youth but clearly a wine built for longevity.

d'Arenberg The Galvo Garage Cabernet Blend 2017

This wine provides serious bang for your buck. It's a wine of great complexity with a classic bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Perfect to take to your next wine club or dinner party.

d'Arenberg The Twenty Eight Road Mourvedre 2018

A rich and generous red displaying an array of savoury flavours and fine tannins.

d'Arenberg The Custodian Grenache 2020

A versatile food wine with lively tannins and bright acidity.

d'Arenberg The Dry Dam Riesling 2023

Fresh and zesty, a wonderful balance between flavour intensity, sweetness and refreshing acidity.

d'Arenberg The Coppermine Road Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

The Schubert Theorem Shiraz 2019 offers aromas of mint, sage, thyme, blackberry and black cherry fruit. This wine is full-bodied and rich without being heavy, it finishes tremendously long, with silky, cocoa-powder-like tannins.

d'Arenberg The Stump Jump Sauvignon Blanc 2023

Clean, fresh and full of passionfruit, with lychee and gooseberries that dance across the palate.
