The Farmer, The Chef and The Winemaker at Glen Ewin Estate

South Australian’s Glen Ewin Estate has been around for almost 180 years and is still going strong. 

Gather for a lavish dinner at this beloved venue and learn more about its rich history. Resident chef Jason Theng will craft canapés, an appetiser, entrée, main and dessert using produce sourced from leading South Australian suppliers including OBE Organic Beef, whose sustainable, free range, grass-fed and certified organic range always impresses. 

Mt Bera Vineyards is set to supply the evening’s wines. The label is based in the cool-climate Adelaide Hills, using merlot, pinot noir and cabernet sauvignon to produce boutique wines akin to those from Bordeaux and Burgundy. Glen Ewin’s story began with horticulturist George McEwin, creator of the famous Glen Ewin Jam label. Production continued on the estate for many years until the brand was purchased by IXL back in the 1980s. 

But what happened to Glen Ewin? It was sadly soon in disrepair. When current owners the Wauchope family purchased the property in the 90s it was practically derelict. Little by little the Glen Ewin Estate we now know emerged. People loved the beautiful gardens with their sweeping lawns and expansive lakes; soon couples began asking if they could get married there. 

Today Glen Ewin Estate is among Adelaide’s premier wedding venues. Its Cellar Door Restaurant is open to the dining public from Thursday to Sunday, offering a delicious seasonal selection of local produce and beverages. 

A signature fig spritzer will begin this indulgent evening. Settle in.
