d'Arenberg Wine, Food, Art & Gin Tour

Add d'Arenberg to the top of your list of things to do in McLaren Vale with an experience that brings together gin, wine, food and art under one striking roof. Set at one of the region's most distinctive venues, the day pairs curated tastings with a two-course lunch and a genuine surprise — a Salvador Dalí exhibition housed inside the winery itself.

The day opens with an artisan gin flight, where you'll discover how individually steeped botanicals and precision blending come together to create a refreshing spirit. From there, you're seated in the Sensorial Circus for a two-course lunch, surrounded by an eclectic collection of art and curiosities that sets the tone for what follows.

Afterwards, wander the halls of the Salvador Dalí exhibition and the Alternate Realities Museum, filled with works designed to awaken the senses. The day finishes on the top floor of the d'Arenberg Cube with the famed 'Dead Arm Distinction' — a curated tasting of current releases, vintage blends and flagship wines.
