We were looked after by Steph, who delivered the four wines from the flight we had selected and presented a delicious platter. We enjoyed all the wines, and Steph returned throughout the tasting to chat about what we liked, what we didn’t, and to offer a few additional suggestions. Her knowledge, warmth, and genuine enthusiasm added so much to the experience.
Outside, two other visiting couples finished their tasting, purchased a bottle of The Signature (a great choice), and came inside to sit near the fire, enjoying their wine and chatting with us. The atmosphere felt relaxed, friendly, and very much shaped by the welcoming staff. Very much an experience rather than a simple tasting.
Yalumba continues to be one of our “must do’s” when we visit the Barossa. If you’re planning a visit, it’s worth looking ahead at their tours, platters, and tasting options to make the most of your time.
A big thank you again to Steph for looking after us and making our return visit such a pleasure.
A day later, still reminiscing, I looked again at the website to see if there was any other tours we could do. I happened to see that if you purchased the “rare and fine” tasting only at $30, that it would be redeemed on a purchase. Now, we had spent way more than $30, yet were asked to pay full price on the wine I purchased.
This marred my experience of a perfect day!
I sent an email regarding this and my disappointment at spending several hundred dollars yet not getting any redemption on purchase. I didn’t really expect a response. So,
I was surprised to get a reply to the email from Bec, who was apologetic and offered me a choice of a bottle or a refund of $30.
I was delighted when she actually followed through and I was sent another lovely Yalumba red!
This kind of service is so rare these days. Absolute top class. Highly recommended and we will definitely visit again on our next visit to the Barossa. Thank you!
Barossa - Yalumba Estate. 175 year history!
We visited in March 2026.
We were too early (for us) for a full wine tasting, but we did try two of the best Reds - Thank you.
We purchased one of the premium red Shiraz - to save for a special occasion at home.
We learned a lot, and appreciated the insight from the really friendly staff.
The buildings, grounds and gardens are really exquisite.
The Cooperage was also interesting.
Yes, very well recommended.
Thank you.
We already liked Yalumba wines, but we left liking them even more. They also prepared a gluten-free and coeliac-safe charcuterie board for us, which was absolutely delicious.
If you love your wines, great food, and beautiful places full of history, this is a great one to visit!
A tasting flight of some of the premium wines in the portfolio ends the tour, accompanied by a very good charcuterie/ cheese platter.
All in all a great experience, highly recommend as a commercial but still family owned and historic winery tour experience. The cooperage tour makes it unique
Loved that there was a wide selection and as couples we chose to try different wines. Thus really got to sample 10 rather than just 6 (since we shared). Shiraz was delish, and was surprised how much we liked the whites!
Stunning grounds. Wish we had time to tour the cooperage. Loved “Big Red” the painting! (My nickname.)
Delicious wines. The old buildings are just amazing.
Delicious wines. The old buildings are just amazing.
My wife and I booked in for a $120 tour each and were extremely happy with the terrific, knowledgeable guide who took us around the estate explaining the history of Yalumba. The Cooperage (wine barrel making) was exceptional with a personal explanation of the stages involved in barrel making by a highly skilled and informative cooper.
We also had a notable visit to the Signature wines area and the amazing old wine storage tanks which have been repurposed.
Concluding the tour was a gourmet food platter accompanied by many samples of Yalumba's wines. As much driving was still to be done in the day, we declined the wine sampling but were provided with our choice of soft drinks to enjoy.
Wonderful value for money and a most memorable experience.
In addition to wine tasting you may wish to pay a visit to the cooperage warehouse on location.
Wine tasting and plater sensational.
Really recommend this experience.
We had a great time
Staff very friendly.
Will be back in the warmer weather.
Steak not worth $45.
Outside public toilets.
No table service.
Do not waste your time eating here.
A stalwart of the Barossa and must visit winery, a long history
If big wineries is what you're after, highly recommend Seppeltsfield and Chateau Tanunga.
Cheese platter delicious
The service matches the wine at Yalumba, both outstanding.
The grounds are beautifully set and are a perfect place to take some time out to relax. You can choose from a variety of flight tastings depending on your tastes.
I would recommend this as a destination if you visiting the Barossa Valley.
Thoroughly enjoyed all the wines and a fantastic platter. Will be going back very soon
It was the day before they were having a huge Anniversary Celebration so we went on an Unguided Tour throughout the Estate which we found fascinating & magnificent.
This was a perfect stop choice on our Wine Hopper visit to Barossa Valley. The option for a flight of White or Red Wines blended extraordinarily well with the palates of our group. The charcutier plate of cheeses, olives, crackers and thinly sliced prosciutto was a delightful complement to our wines.
The Wine Hopper option is the best value for your day in Barossa Valley and Yolumba is a visually appealing and taste bud treat you will not want to miss.
