Jim Barry Coonawarra Vineyard
On the southern boundary of Coonawarra is the old Penola cricket ground, which first saw a ball bowled in anger and the flashing cover drives of local champions in 1950.
Jim Barry always had an affection for Coonawarra and the region’s fabulous Cabernet Sauvignon fruit, so when the property went on the market, the opportunity to transform it into a vineyard was too good to miss. To preserve a little piece of Coonawarra cricketing history, the original pavilion was retained and the vines were planted around the cricket pitch.
Over thousands of years erosion and air-borne dust have laid down the famous Coonawarra ‘terra rossa’ soil. The limestone that underlies the area is porous and has an excellent water-holding capacity, providing a very good source of supplementary water during dry periods. Coonawarra lies well south of latitude 37° and it has a cooler climate than many of the other Australian grape-growing regions. This cooler climate results in a much longer ripening season; which in turn produces excellent fruit flavours and unique tannin structure.
373 Chapel Hill Road, Blewitt Springs
In a commanding, elevated position, towering above McLaren Vale's scenic region with breathtaking panoramic views as far as the ocean, this superior residence has a fittingly sumptuous interior to equal its magnificent surroundings.
Architecturally designed and built in 1999, this is a luxurious home of immense and extravagant proportion; an elite example of select craftsmanship, completed to a meticulously high end finish across two levels of living space.
11 acres of surrounding grounds contain a 6 ½ acres high quality boutique Shiraz vineyard, magnificently landscaped gardens and a choice of options for refined outdoor entertaining, alfresco relaxation and leisure.
The vineyard was professionally designed and planted in 2000 using cuttings from d'Arenberg's old vine shiraz. The vineyard has been managed by the owners maintaining the highest standards, including working towards full organic viticulture practices. The result is the production of consistently top grade fruit, which is currently sold to a prominent local winery who is keen to continue with this arrangement. Your opportunity to enjoy the fresh air and immerse yourself in the beautiful surroundings, or simply contract vineyard management out, all the while creating an income from the luxury of your own home.

James Halliday: And I'm James Halliday.
Iain: This week, which is Len's vision, would not be possible without our many supporters. And when Len had the idea of this wine school, he, to get the foundation money, rang 12 of his best friends, wine companies and industry suppliers, and I don't think one said no.
James: I'm sure you're right.

McLaren
The name McLaren is synonymous with motor racing excellence and stands today as a symbol for automotive superiority. Yet what is less known is that the brand was the creation of one young man from New Zealand -- a pioneer who followed his dream and who against all odds led a team to greatness and himself to become a motorsport champion and hero. Despite the tragic end to his life, Bruce’s legacy lives on and his vision, passion and drive to innovate continues to be at the heart of advanced motor engineering to this day. A truly inspirational story of a young boy from humble birth who dared to take on the elite world of motor racing and win. - ( Original Title - McLaren )
