Relax on a day of luxury as you explore the lesser-visited side of the gorgeous Barossa Valley wine region. You'll be part of a very small group that maxes out at 6 guests, with your professional wine guide choosing 3 boutique wineries for you to enjoy.
Start with a morning pickup from Adelaide around 9am, or from the Barossa a little later on around 10am. After about an hour drive to the Barossa, it'll soon be time to enjoy tasting some wine. You may start somewhere traditional like Langmeil or Gibson, and then follow it up with somewhere that takes a more modern approach. We have a list of over 40 boutique wineries who all make amazing wine, who we like to showcase depending on the day. Each day is totally flexible but we always like to showcase a diverse range of wines from small batch to boutique to the very premium.
You'll savour wine tastings at two different boutique wineries before a delicious restaurant lunch at one of our fabulous restaurant partners. Enjoy a glass of local wine or beer as the perfect accompaniment to your seasonally inspired lunch.
After lunch you may step things up a notch and visit a winery producing much richer and heavier wines, venture over the ridge into the Eden Valley, or visit a tiny producer making organic wines. Over the first half of the day, your guide will gather your groups interests and choose an appropriate winery location for the second half of the day.
With a strong focus on premium boutique wineries that you don't find at all the big liquor chains, you may also visit more world-renowned names like Torbreck or Yalumba should you wish. Just be sure to get in touch with us any of your special requests so we can pre-book the perfect itinerary.
Your day is not only about having fun but also trying to be diplomatic to the group while showcasing a variety of styles and producers. We want you to learn about stylistic approach, the difference that site makes, the influence that the winemaker can have on the wine - anything to help you become a more informed consumer, so you can decipher the jargon on the back of the bottle and make better wine choices. No matter what that may mean to you.
After wine tasting at 3 wineries and a fabulous lunch, you'll be back at your central Adelaide accommodation around 5:00pm.
