We visited this delightful winery as part of a private wine tour with Taste of South Australia…read more Unlike tasting rooms in the states, this one was no charge. We tried a wide variety of their wines including: -Verdelho - excellent fruity white wine -Rose- light red and tastes of raspberry -Little demon blend ( cab+Malbec) - delicious raspberries and chocolate - Malbec - very dry, fruit forward - K.i Shiraz - tastes of the sea (our least favorite) - Lime cave cab -typical big cab, earthy - Eocene ancient vines Shiraz -balanced and rich - really good. Prices at the winery were very reasonable ranging from $23-$40 per bottle. The quality of the wines could easily support higher prices if they were available in the states ( which unfortunately they are not ). Super friendly people round out this great spot. Recommended.

We were celebrating a birthday and tried the Prosecco - sparkling dry white and the Sangiovese - spicy dry red - both excellent and available to buy from the cellar door. Dessert didn't disappoint - a choice of chocolate fudge cake or a plum and almond tart - both worth the trip.

It is set just to the left and behind the Hahndorf Inn. Look for a barn looking building near the car parks. The set up is very cute, an old barn with modern touches. The walls are lined with gorgeous bottles and a fridge is keeping the whites cooled. The staff are attentive and very knowledgeable. If you want to learn more about viticulture or the wine region, you need only ask. The staff are very passionate about promoting what is special in the store. As for wine, a great collection awaits you. There are some main stream wines here, but also a fab collection of boutique drops. These wines will not be found at chain bottle stores. You need to go to independent bottle stores like this one. They are very particular about where they sell their wines. Also know that you will commonly find a tasting on the busy weekends, so that is always a bonus! Love this Wine Centre, it's small but impressive!

What a perfect way to cleanse the palate and cool off after strolling in Historic Hahndorf during an unseasonable 39 degree day! Next we tasted three equally stunning wines - two of which were standouts, the Hahndorf Hills Winery rose' (2015) and the Kersbrook Hill premium cab sav cuvee. Both, while very different were stunning! The rose was light and fruity (watermelon, cherry) without being overly sweet. A great pair for spicier cuisine (Indian, Asian) or with bold cheese (think blue cheese). The cab sav could easily serve as a welcome beverage upon a guests arrival or paired with seafood (shrimp, crab). Again - STUNNING!!

We enjoyed from a very good menu, two large homebaked steak pies, with salad and fries.

So glad my husband and I stumbled upon this absolute gem!!! We originally came in looking for a tasting of a few reds. We each did the red tasting, which consisted of a Pinot noir rose, Pinot noir dry red, cab Sauvignon and their flagship Shiraz. All of the wines were awesome! So awesome that we decided to join the jockey club to receive a case per year (yes....so good that we are having the case shipped across the world back to the USA!). The jockey club comes with tasting notes and recipes paired with each wine/vintage. Such a cool and fun way to experience the wine. After joining the club, we also each got a half glass of the shiraz (more like a full glass) and got to try a few other wines that we would be getting in our shipment. Loved the atmosphere of the cellar door and appreciate it is family run. The winemaker, his wife, and daughter were all in the cellar door talking to us as well as the locals grabbing a glass. What a wonderful spot and family-run business. Highly highly recommend stopping in here!!

What is not to love about a winery in winter that has a wood fire going??…read more Upon entry we were greeted by the cellar door staff who apologized that the fire was not as warm as it should be, he didnt force us to have a tasting but more so just let us be as we walked around and just took in the place and the scenery. There is a lot art work around the place which you can wander through in your own time. The wine selection is nice and the staff are knowledgeable about the varieties. I did enjoy these wine more so a few years ago but in saying that you cant go past a glass (or bottle!) of Church Block. They have cheese and crackers for purchase if you want to have more than just a tasting where you can sit inside next to the fire or outside. They also have a box of toys in the cellar door corner to keep little people entertained.
