Settled over 170 years ago, the Barossa is celebrated for the exceptional food, wine and cultural experiences it provides. It is home to some of the oldest Shiraz vines in the world, with much of the patchwork of vineyards still tended by fifth and sixth generation growers today.
The Barossa charms visitors with its picturesque countryside, rolling hills and quaint towns and villages. It is one of Australia’s most important heritage areas, with the traditions, buildings and churches of its early European settlers lovingly preserved and still used.
The Barossa is home to the biggest names in Australian wine, including two of the most prestigious –Penfolds (Grange) and Henschke Cellars (Hill of Grace) plus Seppeltsfield and Jacob’s Creek.
