玛格丽河其中一家最重要的酒庄,诞生的历史充满着文学与文化的融合。一位爱尔兰人罗更医生(Dr.John Lagan)在1968年到达玛格丽河,被这一带的景色和新派的气象所吸引,当时玛格丽河的酿酒业仍处于起步阶段,他在1977年种植他的第一株葡萄树。酷爱文学的罗更医生。以仙乐都命名他的葡萄园,因仙乐都的景色与诗篇里的描写极相似。至于他为何以中国传说中的龙作为酒标,他却未有解释,莫非又有另一番玄机?
Situated in the exclusive circle encompassing some of Margaret River’s most outstanding wineries, Xanadu is a true pioneer of the region with a long history of producing wines with distinct character.Xanadu was established by Dr John Lagan, an Irishman, who arrived in Margaret River in 1968 and was inspired by the pioneering spirit of the region. At the time, the potential of Margaret River as one of the world’s finest wine-producing regions was only just being considered. John established one of the region’s earlier vineyards planting his first vines in 1977. A lover of literature and inspired by the similarities between the environment at Xanadu and words of Coleridge; Dr Lagan named the vineyard after the home of Kubla Khan.
