Sourced from a prized single vineyard in McLaren Vale, d'Arenberg's 'The Beautiful View' Grenache pays homage to the spectacular vistas of the Gulf St Vincent and the rolling hills of the region. This wine is crafted using time-honored, traditional methods, including foot-treading in open fermenters and gentle basket pressing, before aging in seasoned French oak barriques. The old vines yield a wine of remarkable depth and character, capturing the essence of McLaren Vale's unique terroir with vibrant red berry fruit, savory spice, and a distinctive mineral undertone.
