About Shaw + Smith

Shaw + Smith is an Adelaide Hills winery on Jones Road in Balhannah, started by two cousins and known for its Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Its Tasting Room looks over the Balhannah vineyard. For functions, a dedicated part of the Tasting Room is set aside for your group alone. It suits private and corporate events from 10 to 60 people, set at long tables with the vineyard outside. Every winery event includes a tutored element, so guests learn about the wines as they taste them. Larger groups that would otherwise book a wine flight move into a private function, with options starting at $40 per person. Catering for private events comes from the winery's restaurant partner, with sample menus in the events pack. Drinks packages are also available for guests who want other alcohol alongside the estate wines. Bookings need more notice than a standard group visit because menus are arranged with the caterer. A deposit secures the date, with the balance paid before the event. The Tasting Room is open to the public for flights and share plates from its cold larder menu, and private functions are arranged separately with the events team. End-of-year work events are a regular part of its calendar.
