d'Arenberg Peppermint Paddock Sparkling Chambourcin
This unusual variety is well suited to produce sparkling red. Aromas of red-fruit jam and exotic spice jump from the glass and the palate has delicious sweet fruit flavours with terrific length.
d'Arenberg The Custodian Grenache
Grenache has always been a cornerstone of d'Arenberg's red wines and this is one of the benchmarks of the variety. Produced from old low yielding vines it is a wine of great character and intensity. Showing none of the sickly confectionery characters that can plague this variety, it's all about elegant, savoury spice.
d'Arenberg Footbolt Shiraz

The palate is full-flavoured, supple in texture with a velvety finish.
d'Arenberg Pollyanna Polly Non-Vintage
These traditional sparkling varieties of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier are sourced from the cool climate Adelaide Hills, and are picked early to retain high natural acidity. Small batches of these low yielding grapes are gently pressed in stainless stell basket presses. Following primary and partial malolactic fermentation the inidividual parcels are bottled and inoculated with yeast and sugar to encourage secondary fermentation. The cuvee is fermented in the bottle to develop complexity for approximately four years. This is a dry style sparkling with minerality, a crisp acid backbone and layers of flowers, fruits and toasty savoury nuances.
D'Arenberg Coppermine Rd Cabernet Sauvignon
'The Coppermine Road Cabernet Sauvignon, which is still tightly wound, the black berry and currant fruit compressed into a solid block while its secondary dark chocolate characters are now powering out of the glass. If you open this now you are going to need a dinosaur steak to stand up to it, but wait another five to 10 years and you'll see something else.' - Adelaide Advertiser, 20 Sep 2014, by Tony Love. 'Full-on blackberry and blackcurrant fruit strikes from the first sniff of this opulent and intense McLaren Vale cabernet. The fruit intensity on the nose and palate is extraordinary, revealing so much depth and concentration. Plenty of French and American oak, and the tannins have a nice suppleness.' 96/100. - Weekend West, Perth, 24 Aug 2013, by Ray Jordan.
