About this tour

What to expect
You'll taste wine at three distinct venues, each with its own character. The Cube offers theatrical tasting rooms; Mollydooker showcases the Vale's riper style; Sidewood delivers the cooler, crisper Adelaide Hills profile. Between venues, you'll drive through rolling vineyard country and pastoral hills. Hahndorf is yours to navigate—grab lunch from the main street's eclectic mix, or pop into the strawberry farm shop for complimentary jam samples. The final stop at Mount Lofty is photo-friendly but windy; bring a layer.
Good to know
Lunch isn't included; budget accordingly for Hahndorf's cafés and restaurants. Three wine tastings mean drink responsibly if you're driving. Prams and strollers are accommodated. All venues are subject to availability, so confirm ahead. Comfortable shoes suit the village stroll.
