About Taste the Barossa

Taste the Barossa is a family tour company started in 2009 by Dallas and Nikki Coull. Dallas has worked in tourism for more than 25 years and spent much of his youth in the Barossa, including an early job on a winery bottling line. The signature product is a full-day small-group tour capped at 20 guests. It calls at Kies Family Wines, takes in a self-guided walk and structured tasting at Chateau Tanunda, and stops at Melba's in Angaston for a regional platter lunch with a glass of wine or a soft drink. After lunch comes a pairing of Yalumba fortified wine with Melba's chocolate, then a final tasting at Rosenvale, a three-generation family vineyard. The day ends with a drive along palm-lined Seppeltsfield Road while the guide tells the story of its estates. Groups can also hire the company's own Toyota Coaster buses for a private charter. Each charter visits up to four wineries with a lunch stop, and the itinerary is shaped around what your group wants to see, from household names to smaller producers. Custom touring days suit groups of two to 24, and larger club and corporate groups are catered for on request. For something more exclusive, three flagship private tours offer behind-the-scenes access and rare wines for two to eight guests. Tours run seven days a week. Fill in the enquiry form with your group size and plans, and Dallas or Nikki reply with a price and a suggested itinerary.
