The Vineyard Venue:
The venue for your tasting is a real, working vineyard owned by the Brini family whom are one of our most important growers. It is one of the best vineyards in McLaren Vale, in the Blewitt Springs dress circle for Grenache. And it just so happens to be an incredibly scenic spot. We will meet you and hold your tasting under the gum trees and right in front of the old bush vine Grenache.
There is easy access via Chalk Hill Road or Blewitt Springs Road, with off road parking.
Upon booking, map information will be sent to make finding the location simple.
Stunning views over the vineyards to the Mt Lofty Ranges beyond will capture your gaze as you sample the finished wine right in front of where it once grew.
