Full description
You will be picked up from your hotel at 9:00 AM and driven in a Land Rover Discovery 4×4 to the Bekkers Wine estate. Enjoy a private tasting of their cellar-worthy wines in the luxurious tasting room overlooking the estate with either Toby or Emmanuelle Bekkers.
Next stop is the Samson Tall winery. The "new boy on the block", Samson Tall is situated in Bethany Chapel, the original vineyard site of Wirra Wirra’s Church Block. Samson Tall epitomises the modern style of McLaren Vale with a select range of single vineyard wines. Enjoy a tasting with owner and winemaker Paul Wilson; plus, he’ll take you on a tour of his new winery.
Then head to Wirra Wirra Vineyards, a McLaren Vale and South Australian icon, built by the McLaren Vale pioneer and famed eccentric Greg Trott. Go behind the scenes in Wirra Wirra’s historic ironstone cellars, enjoying a private Shiraz tastin, plus a lunch of platters and wine.
After lunch visit the d‘Arenberg Cube, the avant-garde, Rubik’s Cube inspired cellar door. D’Arenberg is a founding member of Australia’s First Families of Wine, and the flamboyant five-story Cube erupts from the ground in the heart of its original McLaren Vale vineyard.
You will then visit Silver Sands Beach, the famous strip of white, fine sand featuring majestic views of the Fleurieu coastline and spectacular biodiversity.
Finally head to the renowned Victory Hotel to see its famous cellar, then pop up to the classic Australian “front bar” and enjoy a cold beer or sparkling wine to finish the day.
