the pinnacle: Adelaide Hills

A day of ultimate exclusivity, we’ll take you into the realm of the winemaker at both rising star and cult status wineries.

Start the day with exclusive access at one of the Adelaide Hill’s most iconic new winery brands – Shaw + Smith. You’ll get the VIP treatment, wandering the vineyard rows and enjoying their wines where they were grown, before taking a tour of their working winery. Back at the tasting room, you’ll sit down to a masterclass of their flagship single vineyard wines as led by your host.

Next is a stop for lunch at one of the region’s best and most scenic winery restaurants. Enjoy the chef’s selection of their finest dishes, paired with their best estate grown wines. The food is guaranteed to be fantastic, but it’s the view that you’ll eat up the most.

Last but not least, tour the home of Australia’s most iconic wine brand – Penfolds. Discover the original Penfolds family home. Tour their iconic winery to see where their wines are made. Walk the secret cellars where Grange was first invented in secret. Finally, enjoy a privately hosted masterclass of Penfolds flagship wines including, of course, Penfolds Grange.

This is the Pinnacle of wine touring in the Adelaide Hills.
