We visit a big cube, blend some wine and see some million dollar sculptures!

Since 2019 we have made a number of visits to D’arenberg Winery and Cube in McLaren Vale, South Australia.

Chester Osborn is chief winemaker and viticulturist. He is a fourth-generation winemaker, taking over from his father in 1983.

The Cube, similar to Rubik’s Cube, was a 14-year dream in the making. Each level, five in total, have been carefully designed to attract and stir the senses. The features include a wine sensory room, a virtual fermenter, a 360 degree video room, and many other tangible experiences.

You can explore the Alternate Realities Museum, located on the ground floor, and view the many art installations on display.

Over the years, the main exhibition has been a display of Salvador Dali sculptures and other works. The exhibition features 25 sculptures
and graphics valued at approximately twenty million
dollars.

We also took part in a wine blending experience, which was fascinating. We got to take home a personally blended bottle of red wine each.
