d’Arenberg Winery in McLaren Vale

Posted in: Travel Videos |

During my visit to McLaren Vale, I caught up with fourth generation wine maker, Chester Osborn from d’Arenberg Winery to learn about what goes into producing his range of award winning wines.

There’s a good chance that you’ve seen and tasted d’Arenberg Wines as their internationally recognised wine brand is commonly known as the ‘Red Stripe’ due to its distinctive diagonal red stripe that adorns the label. d’Arenberg still basket-presses both their red and white grapes which Chester tells me “this gives the wines personality”. The reds are still traditionally fermented with the grape skins submerged in open wax-lined concrete fermenters utilising the age-old technique of foot-treading.
