Arabesque Winery is located just a few blocks from Nanango's CBD, adjacent
to the Nanango Showgrounds (which front the D'Aguilar Highway). The winery
and its vineyards were established by
James and
Melinda Taylor
in 1999.
Arabesque is a modern winery and its cellar door is located immediately
next to the main wine bottling and cellaring area. This unique design allows
visitors to see what the interior of a contemporary winery
really looks like (and of course, ask James technical questions about
winemaking and winemaking equipment).
The winery is surrounded by Arabesque's 5 acre vineyards which produce
shiraz, verdelho, semillon, malbec and chardonnay grapes.
The winery also produces wines for other South Burnett cellar doors. So in
addition to unblended versions of wines crafted from their own grapes, Arabesque
also produce a merlot; a rose; a sweet verdelho; a sparkling chardonnay;
a cabernet-sauvignon and a sparkling shiraz.
You can visit Arabesque's cellar door from 10:00am to
2:00pm every Saturday and Sunday. In addition to wine, the cellar
door displays an extensive gallery of modern South Burnett artworks
on its walls which are also available for purchase. Many of the artists on
show exhibit throughout south-east Queensland.
Bus groups are also welcome by appointment and there's plenty of free
parking in the grounds.
