This morning, your private guide and dedicated vehicle will arrive at your door, ready to escort you on an exclusive journey through the sun-drenched vineyards of McLaren Vale.
Your day begins with a truly privileged invitation to Bekkers Clarendon Vineyard, opened exclusively for your visit. Here, you will be personally welcomed by Toby or Emma Bekkers, the passionate visionaries behind one of Australia's most revered boutique labels. Together, you will explore the lovingly restored vineyard that sits among the ancient hills of Clarendon, wandering beside the river and its dramatic sandstone cliffs as the story of this remarkable landscape unfolds before you. Ascend to a private lookout for sweeping, uninterrupted views across a site first planted in the 1840s, a moment that simply cannot be rushed.
Within the intimate barrel hall, you will taste Syrah and Grenache as they quietly evolve in oak, before a curated selection of finished wines is presented for your consideration. A beautifully composed seasonal platter lunch follows, enjoyed in unhurried elegance with the vineyard stretching out before you.
The afternoon leads you to the much-loved Primo Estate, where three generations of the Grilli family have woven McLaren Vale's bold character with an unmistakable Italian soul. Settle in for an intimate tasting of their exceptional Joseph Super Premium Range, accompanied by house-baked bread and estate-pressed olive oil — a deeply satisfying close to a day of rare discovery.
