Coonawarra Highlights – Half Day Coonawarra Wine Tour Including Lunch

Tour :
12:30PM - 5PM | From $185 per person

Experience one of the best Coonawarra wine tours with this all-inclusive half-day journey, designed to showcase the region’s world-class Cabernet Sauvignon and welcoming cellar door culture.

Coonawarra Experiences offers a fully hosted wine tour including all tastings, a generous grazing-style lunch and transport, with no tasting fees or hidden costs. Consistently rated 5 stars on TripAdvisor and Google, this experience delivers exceptional service, local insight, and genuine connection.

Visit up to four carefully selected cellar doors, featuring a mix of iconic wineries and boutique producers. Each stop highlights the diversity of Coonawarra’s famed Terra Rossa soils and cool climate wines, with relaxed tastings and opportunities to engage with knowledgeable cellar door staff and, at times, the winemakers themselves.

A hearty grazing platter is included and served in a cellar door setting, showcasing fresh Limestone Coast produce and perfectly complementing the wines.

Throughout the experience, we will share insights into the history of Coonawarra, from its pioneering beginnings to its global reputation for Cabernet Sauvignon. You will also learn about the unique Terra Rossa soil profile and what makes this narrow strip of land one of Australia’s most celebrated wine regions.

Pick up and drop off from your accommodation in Penola or Coonawarra is included, along with bottled water for your enjoyment.

More than a standard wine tour, this is a fully hosted Coonawarra wine experience designed to deliver exceptional value, authentic moments and a true connection to the region.

What is included in your tour?

Your small tour group will visit 3-4 of Coonawarra's best cellar doors, meet the winemakers, and enjoy intimate private tasting sessions with your hosts. We'll have a delicious lunch in town and take in a spot of local sightseeing along the way.

We work closely with our friends at Coonawarra's cellar doors to provide you with a unique hosted experience that you couldn't recreate on your own.

The exact locations may vary depending on the day, but we always use our extensive local knowledge and connections to create a memorable experience for you.

Coonawarra Wineries

We usually make it to 3-4 cellar doors located along Coonawarra's "Terra Rossa" strip.

You can suggest your favourite cellar doors, or we can tailor the day to suit your wine preferences. The region produces everything from crisp whites to big bold reds at iconic cellars doors or intimate family owned and operated wineries.
