A blend of 50% Shiraz and 50% Grenache that was known as d’Arenberg Burgundy until the 1990’s, this wine is named in honour of d’Arenberg principal, Francis d’Arenberg Osborn, who is universally known as d’Arry.

Opaque black dark red colour with dark red crimson hue. The nose shows good intensity with liquorice and blackberry top notes intermingling with some meatiness, spice and earth. Rich generous flavours of ripe blackberry and liquorice fill the palate followed by some earth, spice and pepper. Soft beautifully integrated tannin structure. Long spicy blackberry, liquorice and earth aftertaste. A classic example of this iconic McLaren Vale blend.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.
