UberVino Launches To Tour You Through SA’s Wine Regions At Only $39/Hour

We’ve all been there. Amazing destinations in mind and no way to get there. Well not if you want to drink. Thanks to UberVino that’s all about to change.

We’ve all been there. Amazing destinations in mind. Maybe it’s a wine degustation lunch at Bird in Hand, or a masterclass at Longview with a few other stops along the way. Maybe it’s a day exploring the wineries dotted through the Adelaide Hills. Maybe it’s just an adventure without any real plan. But who the hell is going to drive?

Once you’ve gone through your non-drinking friends, and your pregnant friends inconveniently have their babies and stop being the designated driver, you’re pretty much stuck. And hiring a bus can get expensive. But now (raise your glass in the air) UBER VINO HAS ARRIVED. The wine gods have spoken, and the great folks over at Uber have listened. From today, we can now ALL partake in the gorgeous experience that is wine tasting through South Australia’s Adelaide Hills wine region, just 20 minutes from the CBD, for a bloody affordable price.

With over 50 cellar doors to choose from, dozens of artisan purveyors and rolling hills with an abundance of native fauna and flora, Adelaide Hills is a favourite among locals and visitors alike.
uberVINO means you have clarity and control over the cost of your ride, with a simple hourly rate at $39 p/h, you can create a wine tour to suit your wallet and your schedule. You can stop the tour whenever and wherever you like, and there’s no limit to the time or distance on uberVINO trips. There is however, a $50 minimum fare, which works out to just over an hour of time. We don’t know about you but that’s hardy enough time to get stuck in to the Hills.
UberVino, cheers to you, and we can’t wait for the other wine regions to follow…
Exclusive offers for uberVINO riders
Some of the best wineries in the region have partnered with uberVINO to offer riders exclusive offers and discounts to enhance their visit. This includes:
Sidewood Estate
Anyone for golf? Take a swing at Sidewood’s hole-in-one challenge with a free bucket of balls before enjoying a free tasting of their premium wine range.
The Lane
Indulge in The Lane’s private tasting room with a free Block series tasting, and 2 for 1 Indulgence and Experience tastings, which you do not want to miss.

Howard Vineyard
Live music, good food, great wine and craft beer! With free wine and beer tastings, and 20% off any wine and cheese tasting plates, Howard is putting on the VIP treatment for uberVINO riders. Howard Vineyard is open daily except Saturdays.

Artwine
A fun, bright and beautiful cellar door. Come say hello to Coco the dog and marvel in an exclusive free tasting of Artwine’s flagship Montelpuciano.

Somerled
The Somerled Shiraz is a show stopper, and they’re giving uberVINO riders a free half glass of their flagship Somerled Shiraz (‘as close to Grange as you’ll ever get’) for every half glass purchased from their stable of wines.

Woodside Cheese
If you’re feeling a bit peckish, why not stop by Woodside Cheese who are offering 50% off a $20 cheese pack served in a takeaway thermo bag. Here’s some of the amazing cheeses we tried when we popped past on our uberVino tour. It’s a great place to grab a platter and a vino while you’re there, or restock the picnic ready for the next stop on your adventure.

How it works
  • Enter the address of the first winery you’d like to visit in the Adelaide Hills.
  • Select uberVINO (instead of Uber X or Uber Black on your app) between 10am – 4pm, Wednesday – Sunday, and one Uber’s top rated drivers will pick you up and take you to your winery.
  • When you’re nearly done at the first winery, call or text your driver using the Uber app, they’ll be waiting for you in the car park.
  • Enter a new Adelaide Hills winery into your app and your driver will be automatically updated with your next destination.
  • Your driver will end the trip upon your request.

 Bottoms up!
