​​Living in South Australia, we know how lucky we are to have so many quality wineries at our doorstep, and the family-run Barossa-based winery Henschke offers three exciting new experiences, to keep us busy over the summer.

 The first of Henschke’s flagship experiences is the Mount Edelstone Experience, which takes guests on a private tour and tasting of fourth-generation winemaker Cyril Henschke’s first single-vineyard shiraz. 

The tour begins with a visit to the Mount Edelstone centenarian vines, followed by a tour of the historic winery and a private tasting headlined by the latest release, 2016 Mount Edelstone. 

The 1.5-2 hour experience is a must for all wine connoisseurs looking to expand on their knowledge of world-class winemaking. 

The second is the Hill of Grace experience, offering exclusive access to one of the most renowned Henschke vineyards, Hill of Grace. 

Observe and stand in awe of the ancient, gnarled vines. Soak up over 150 years of winemaking history as you explore parts of the original winery built in the 1860s. Then, settle in your private tasting room to enjoy a range of distinguished Henschke wines, including The Wheelwright, Cyril Henschke, Mount Edelstone, plus rare access to taste Hill of Roses and Hill of Grace. 

The final experience on offer at Henschke is at the family’s Cellar Door. Exploring the Henschke Cellar Door will immerse your senses in the history of the beloved South Aussie icon. Guests are offered the opportunity to choose one of Henschke’s bespoke tasting flights and discover over 150 years of winemaking history. 

All of the aforementioned experiences are open for bookings year-round, but what better time than the present to treat the ones you love (or yourself) to a luxury experience in Adelaide’s backyard. 

 For those looking for a last-minute gift, Henschke offers gift vouchers for all of their experiences, and also for their online store.
