Matched with museum wines from Coonawarra, this is a feast for all senses. On conclusion, a short flight back to Adelaide Airport finishes this day of gastronomic delight!
D'ARENBERG WINERY
D'Arenberg are known for the quirky names of their wines, and their specialism in the vines of the Rhône valley. They also produce many of their wines in a traditional manner, using basket pressing for both reds and whites (the only winery in Australia to do so) and leaving the vast majority of the red wines unfiltered and unfined which can cause the wine to throw a sediment in bottle but leaves the flavour intact. The majority of their red wines are suitable for ageing as well as for drinking fairly young and even the cheaper wines show very well after a few years in bottle. Perhaps their best known wine is 'The Dead Arm Shiraz', made from fungus-infected shiraz grape vines.
"We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us"
MAYURA STATION
Mayura Station is located in the
Limestone Coast, heart of some of
the best farming country in
Australia, ideal for producing the
ultimate quality, award winning
Wagyu beef.
The 100% Full-blood Wagyu cattle
were imported into Australia in
1997 and just like thoroughbred
horses, the herd’s ancestry,
bloodlines and pedigree are a
major distinguishing factor in the
quality of Mayura Station Fullblood
Wagyu beef.
