South Australia

South Australia sits at the heart of Australian wine. It’s home to some of the oldest vines in the world and produces around 80% of Australia’s premium wine, which explains why so many of the country’s most recognised bottles trace back here. Each region brings its own strengths. The Barossa Valley is a headline act for Shiraz, Clare Valley is widely celebrated for Riesling, and Coonawarra is known for Cabernet Sauvignon with that classic regional stamp.  Adelaide ties it all together, making it an easy base for cellar doors, long lunches, farmers’ markets, and the kind of food scene that’s grown up right alongside the vines.

We’ve selected standout food and drink experiences across South Australia, from guided tastings and cellar door visits to producer-led tours and long lunches. Each listing is chosen for quality, local character and a strong reputation with guests. Settle in with Barossa Valley Shiraz, seek out Clare Valley Riesling, or plan a day around Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon; there’s plenty to taste and plenty of ways to do it.

Adelaide makes an easy base for exploring the regions, with farmers’ markets, excellent restaurants and local makers close by.
