McLaren Vale’s d’Arenberg The Footbolt Shiraz offers bold, fruit-forward character with spice and integrated oak. Dense dark fruit, strutted by pepper and chocolate notes, supported by plush tannins and good length. A versatile choice for grilled meats, hearty stews, or aging gracefully over a few years.
