Experience the Barossa like no other this season. 

As spring ushers in sunny afternoons and balmy temperatures, Tanunda’s main street has positioned itself as the place to become acquainted with South Australia’s revered hospitality reputation. 

It’s the regional answer to Adelaide’s CBD laneways, with countless cellar doors, wine bars and gin nooks dotted along the quaint strip. Spend your afternoon meandering between these bespoke businesses before arriving at Krondorf Wines – a true highlight on the street. 

Here, old-world charm meets modern sensibilities. What once was a steam-powered flour mill has been transformed into a luxurious urban-leaning hub where you can discover why the Barossa – and Krondorf Wines — are counted high amongst the world’s best food and drinks destinations.

You’re immediately immersed in history when you enter the cellar door via a small door tucked into a heritage stone faćade. From there, you’ll be greeted by one of the most premium spaces in Tanunda. While the cellar door pays homage to the site’s storied history – which dates back to the 1847 – the transformed space oozes refined elegance. Spend your afternoon learning about the history of the Krondorf township, which dates back to Silesian origins, as you’re guided through tastings of the winery’s award-winning drops – the Grand Icons flight is a must for those who want to unearth a greater appreciation for the culture, history and skill of the region and label.   

If you’re searching for something more relaxed, sit on Krondorf’s verandah and watch the world go by as you work through the wine list. The cellar door is also the perfect place for a light lunch. Enjoy locally sourced nibbles (think Maggie Beer’s vintage cheddar and slices of prosciutto) or indulge in an artisanal charcuterie platter featuring fresh Barossa flavours. 

Following your time at Krondorf, the rest of Tanunda is at your fingertips. There are over 80 accommodation options only minutes from the town’s main street, and everything you need for an indulgent weekend (think retail therapy, coffee shops and more) is within walking distance. 

Or, why not extend your trip and unwind with the Hidden Barossa Luxury package with Krondorf Wines? This one-day, one-night experience is the best way to experience the region, featuring a hosted tour with Barossa Bespoke Tours (including pick-up from Adelaide’s CBD or airport), a Krondorf Grand Icons Masterclass and light lunch, a 20-minute helicopter flight over the region, dinner at The Orangerie – Le Mas’ private dining experience – and overnight accommodation at the luxury hotel in the King Room. 

Krondorf Wines is open from Wednesday to Sunday from 10:30am onwards. Read more about the Hidden Barossa Luxury package here.
