Winter may have arrived but there is still a busy calendar for wine lovers at one of the Barossa's most popular destinations.
Yalumba's historic Wine Room is ready to welcome visitors indoors for a season of warmth, flavours and fine company.
The winter events begin with The Signature & Museum Release Tasting Lunch on Friday, June 14.
Held in the Signature Cellar, this is an intimate tasting experience hosted by former chief winemaker Louisa Rose.
Guests can enjoy a three-course lunch from Vintners Bar & Grill chef Peter Clarke with paired wines including the new release The Signature 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon & Shiraz along with a previews of the 2025 museum releases.
The SALA Festival at Yalumba runs in August.
South Australia’s Living Artists (SALA) will hold two exhibitions in the Wine Room.
First, the Vintners Art Prize - an annual collaboration with Vintners Bar & Grill - showcases local talent with artworks exploring themes of food, wine, and place. Open to residents and workers of the Barossa and Light Regional Council areas, entries close July 18, with the winner announced on July 23.
There will also be a solo showcase by Yalumba’s own Lisa Tekell. Inspired by Australian fauna and flora, Lisa’s finely detailed oil paintings are connected to the natural world.
Her works this year focus on native flowers in full bloom, as seen in her travels, and will be on
display throughout the month. Book a wine tasting and explore these local works at the same time.
Winter Wine & Whisky at Yalumba will run on August 8-9 and is a mid-winter celebration of flavour, fire, and craft at Yalumba - including the release of a new Smith’s Angaston Whisky.
Guests can enjoy a guided tasting of the new limited-edition whisky along with a behind-the-scenes look at the Hill-Smith family's historic pot still and fistillery and live cooperage demonstrations with barrels being hand-charred for whisky maturation.
Acoustic music on the Terrace and a hearty fireside meal by Howard’s Fire will also be on offer.
Tickets include a glass of Yalumba wine, the whisky tasting, and a meal.
The Yalumba Wine Room is open daily 10am-5pm at 40 Eden Valley Road, Angaston.
