Good for a drop of shiraz? Mclaren Vale is best known for this variety, but also excels in the production of ultrapremium grenache and cabernet. Plus, Mediterranean varieties such as vermentino, tempranillo and sangiovese are also very well suited climatically here. A must-visit is The d’arenberg Cube at d’arenberg winery. It’s an extraordinary building inspired by the Rubik’s Cube. Here you can sample the wines from the vines outside, as well as blend your own. There’s also the Alternate Realities Museum (an art gallery) to browse and enjoy at your leisure. darenberg.com.au
