Departing the city, your personalised tour will travel via the most scenic of avenues, the picturesque Torrens Gorge. As you leave the Gorge, rugged cliffs melt into lush fruit laden vineyards. Basking in a warmer climate, the Barossa is famous for its medium to full bodied table wines, principally produced from red grape varieties with Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon heading the list, along with Chardonnay and Semillon, the popular white grape varieties.

You’ll savour wines, each bursting with abundant character, as you seduce the palate with a selection of wine styles from the regions most inviting cellar doors. Continuing the temptation, talented regional chefs will prepare local produce, as today your lunch is at one of the regions idyllic country restaurants.

Moving from the modern to the traditional, the historic Seppeltsfield Winery is an impressive facility. Your journey will step back in time, as your tour takes you behind-the-scenes into the Seppelt  family homestead and  vintage cellars where barrels of wine continue to age gracefully to maturity. Your privileged entry provides a tutored tasting of super premium and fortified wines not normally available to cellar door visitors.    Arousing in every way, this is your chance to taste ‘liquid history’ as you appraise a rare 100 year old port.
