National Wine Centre - tasting experiences in Adelaide

ProView

National Wine Centre (Adelaide CBD)4.5 (1902)

Private cellar dinners seat a group among the racks for four courses, with a sommelier choosing a wine for every dish.

Choosing a Tasting Experience

This region's drinks experience is a city one: the National Wine Centre at the East End of the CBD, beside the Botanic Gardens. Unlike a cellar door, it showcases wines from across the country rather than one maker.

Formats ranked by time and depth:

Quickest: self-pour tasting from about 120 wines
Guided: an exhibition tour with a three-glass tasting at the end
Deeper: the cellar upgrade with three reserve wines
Focused: a sommelier masterclass on one grape or region
Sit-down: four courses at a table among the cellar racks
