Clare Valley Winery Tour

T

Tour Overview

Get away from the crowds and enjoy a Premium Winery tour around the beautiful Clare Valley travelling in a small group size (no busses) in premium vehicle with other like minded visitors.

We take care of the entire days itinerary stopping the Clare Valley’s top wineries big and small, covering all the valley’s unique terroir and subregions of Hill River Valley (Polish Hill River), Hutt River Valley (Clare Valley) and the Skilly Valley.

Discover the Clare Valley’s unique history, check out the beautiful countryside and taste Clare’s premium wines as we cruise the Clare Valley in style.

Over the day we’ll visit at least 5 wineries where you can enjoy tastings and the beautiful surroundings plus a beautiful picnic lunch in a winery / garden setting, or upgrade to restaurant lunch, both lunch options include a glass or wine.

Included Lunch Options

Picnic Lunch with Wine (sunny weather option)

We set up our own private picnic table on the shady lawns of the Sevenhill Cellars winery.

Here we provide freshly made gourmet baguettes supplied by local foodie & chef Lou Haines. To make sure they are fresh and yum we put our orders in for lunch once we meet you and you can choose from her ever popular selection, including;

• Baguette de poulet
• Baguette al prosciutto
• Baguette vegetariana

This is a serious gourmet affair which we wash down with a glass of Sevenhill Cellars Riesling.

BBQ Lunch with Wine (wintery weather option)

There is nothing better on a cool wintery Clare Valley day than cranking up the campfire, cooking a BBQ and washing it down with fine Clare Valley Shiraz, we head for private bush setting with beautiful views over the Valley & make it happen.

Here will cook up a storm on the BBQ while you keep warm by the fire, pair your Shiraz with;

• Remarkable Meat Co fine Aussies Beef Steak
• Salmon Fillet

Upgraded Lunch Options

Pauletts Winery, located on top a range with stunning views over the Polish Hill River Valley, is a seriously beautiful spot to settle down for lunch. Their ‘Bush Devine Cafe’ will provide yummy gourmet food which you can pair with a glass of Paulett’s wine of your choosing, or the Pauletts staff will help you match the perfect wine for your lunch choice.

For an additional $40 per person, you can choose;

• Your choice of a main meal with a glass of wine
• Chef’s choice 3 course lunch with a glass of wine

Why not add a hike?

If you feel like getting active, instead of going directly to our picnic lunch, we can drop you off at another point and provide you with a hiking map. The hike passes through native bushland and vineyards and and ends at either our Fine Weather, or Wintery Weather lunch stop, the hike is approximately 1.8km in length. The hike is exclusive and travels through private property, walking shoes are required.

Unfortunately it is not possible to do the hike if you have chosen the upgraded lunch option 🙁
