Arlewood is the winner of James Halliday’s Dark Horse Winery of the Year 2017 and 2020 Gourmet Traveller's Best Small Cellar Door in Margaret River.
Arlewood is a family-owned, single vineyard producer making elegant wines the Gosatti family and friends love to drink. Now, the fifth generation of the Gosatti family; Jordan and Adrian run all operations in the vineyard, with their father Garry.
THE STORY behind the wine
Unlike Australian winemaking trends of producing single variety wines, in northern Italy it's all about blending varieties to produce wines with complexity and layers of flavour, with Nebbiolo.
La Bratta: the name of the nearby mountain village in northern Italy where Garry's mother was born, and where the first family vines were planted, is that wine.
La Bratta Rosso and La Bratta Bianco now represent his personal selection of the best red wine and best white wine barrels from the best vintages. Made in small numbers, not made to a formula, each La Bratta wine is a reflection of his Forest Grove vineyard and family.
THE CHOCOLATE
Temper Temper is a favourite local haunt, stocking their shelves with fine chocolates. Also family run and always experimenting with local ingredients seemed like the perfect fit with Arlewood's experimental and ever- changing La Bratta wines.
*Please note this is an adult only experience, becasue of the various experimental ingredients we use. We do not stock chocolates for children.
Looking forward to greeting you in our cellar door!
