Chateau Tanunda

Château Tanunda, 9 Basedow Rd, Tanunda SA 5352

Château Tanunda, built in 1890 from bluestone quarried at nearby Bethany, is steeped in history. It's an awe-inspiring place to visit, combining historic winery buildings and a stunning cellar door offering internationally acclaimed wines. The building is surrounded by vineyards and beautifully landscaped gardens, a great place to stop and relax while in the valley.

The picturesque cellar door offers the chance to taste and purchase from the Château Tanunda wine range while surrounded by hundreds of oak barrels of maturing wine. Stroll outside the cellar door to the stunning croquet green and have a go at this wonderful old game or book one of our wine tours or experiences to take your Chateau visit to the next level.

Within the historic building on the top floor are elegant and atmospheric conference and function facilities.

Structured tastings and group bookings are available by appointment by phone or online.

We did one of the experience tours and came out very disappointed. We could have walked around ourselves and read the book and picked up more. Our host was corrected on information and was reading the information on the wall to get some answers.
The wine is very good, scenery is very good but the staff need to not take visitors for granted.

Did the $50 bespoke wine tasting 50-150 year old wines. It was amazing, the smell in the cellars was rich with wine and pak barrels. The staff were friendly and informative. Was an absolute pleasurable experience.

Was ok, but I had high hope and perhaps was expecting a little more. My experience felt more like of a tourist stop then the personal, memorable and fun wine stops that I've previously had.

The grounds are magnificent and the cellar door/tasting area looks grand, but it's letdown by the lacklustre staff. No greetings upon arrival. The wines however were amazing and enjoyable.

Niki looked after us so well! I was on a birthday limo wine tour with 12 friends. Chateau Tanunda was the first stop of the day and I can honestly say it was the best. Niki chatted to both of our large tables to decifer our wine preferences. The selection of wine Niki delightfully presented in such an enchanting way - in simple terms - that I very much appreciated. The complexities of each wine that Niki offered was much more enjoyable and a more playful experience. Niki really gave me a better insight into the complexities of wine. My Chateau Tanunda visit was so enjoyable. I really loved all of the wines Niki presented us with. It really was a wonderful experience! Many thanks to you Niki
