"The view from d’Arry’s Verandah over the patchwork quilt of vineyards looks into the heart and soul of McLaren Vale.  Its timber, corrugated iron and glass restaurant is basically a long, enclosed verandah built on to the winery’s original 19th century homestead, which now houses d’Arenberg’s cellar door.
Fine dining over lunch in the middle of a busy wine region has always been a challenge, but chefs Peter Reschke and Nigel Rich have successfully drawn on the extraordinary food and wine resources and culture of McLaren Vale to produce imaginative, big-flavoured dishes that have instant appeal."
