What to expect
You'll arrive at Château Tanunda and be seated for a hosted tasting. The guide will walk you through six wines in sequence, starting with lighter expressions and building through the range. You'll taste four wines from the Old Vine Expressions line — each sourced from vineyards of markedly different ages — plus two additional selections. Water is provided to cleanse your palate between tastings.
The tasting runs 50 minutes total. Expect to spend time on each wine, with the guide describing provenance, vineyard age, and tasting notes. There's opportunity to ask questions about the winemaking process and the specific character each vineyard age brings to the final wine.

Good to know
This suits wine enthusiasts and those curious about how vineyard age influences flavour — you'll get a hands-on comparison without needing prior tasting experience. It's not suitable for pregnant travellers or those with cardiovascular concerns. The experience is seated and stationary, so mobility isn't a barrier; infants and small children can attend in a pram or stroller, though a wine tasting environment may not hold their attention. Transport to and from the venue is not included — arrange your own or book a separate transfer. The 50-minute format is relatively brief, so expect focused tasting rather than leisurely exploration.
