Meet, taste and discover the best of South Australia as more than 100 of the state’s best wineries, distilleries and food producers come together under one roof. Learn about South Australia’s world-class wine scene, with everyone from internationally renowned and boutique brands through to emerging producers. Explore the regions, enjoy complimentary tastings and chat with the makers themselves. Highlights include a series of guided tastings with respected South Australian wine identity Nick Ryan, interactive masterclasses on cheese and wine pairings, blindfolded tastings, Mediterranean-inspired tapas from Sprout and a behind-the-scenes dining experience presented by Africola and Murdoch Hill. Cellar Door Fest takes place from January 31 until February 1, with strictly limited tickets available.
