About this tour
Spend an hour at Adelaide's National Wine Centre exploring how Australia's 65 wine regions each bring distinct character to the glass. A guide walks you through the industry's evolution and the winemakers behind it, then settles you into the Wined Bar for three purposeful tastings. You'll learn to pick apart what makes each wine tick—the aromas, flavours, texture—and come away with genuine knowledge rather than marketing speak.
Highlights
- Survey all 65 Australian wine regions in one tour
- Meet the personalities shaping modern Australian wine
- Three guided tastings in the Wined Bar
- Learn to identify aroma, flavour, and texture cues
- Fully accessible spaces and wheelchair-friendly throughout
What to expect
Your guide leads you through the Wine Centre's exhibits, building context around Australia's winemaking story—where regions sit, what they're known for, and who's doing interesting work there. It's conversational rather than lecturing. After the walk-through, you'll move to the Wined Bar where three wines are poured. The tasting isn't rushed; there's time to nose each glass, taste it, and understand what you're noticing. Staff point out specific characteristics—a wine's weight, its finish, how it might pair—so you're building a real sense of the craft rather than just sipping.
