South Aussies are fiercely proud of their food and wine – and rightly so. Here are seven of our favourite SA foodie experiences.

1. It’s hip to be square in McLaren Vale

d'Arenberg Cube

The d’Arenberg Cube has caused a stir among both wine and architecture enthusiasts. Explore all manner of out-there food, wine and art experiences, or keep it simple by sipping your favourite tipple overlooking the vines.

2. La Boca is a carnivore’s delight

La Boca Bar and Grill is famous for all things meat thanks to their Argentinian head chef, Nicolas Arriola, who’s brought his Michelin-star skills to Adelaide.

3. Get a taste of luxury in the Adelaide Hills

You may have seen in a previous samotor article that the Adelaide Hills was bursting with exciting new wine, beer, cheese and chocolate experiences – as well as plenty of old favourites. It’s also one of the closest foodie regions to the city, making it the perfect day-trip destination.

Now, how does a private, chauffeured tour of the best food and wine in the Hills sound? Pick your own itinerary or let Hills Luxury Day Tours decide.

4. Tasty Tawny in the Barossa Valley

Taste your Birth Year Tour, Seppeltsfield Winery

One of Seppeltsfield’s most popular tours is their ‘Taste your birth year’ experience.

The 30-minute tour involves tasting Seppeltsfield’s Tawny from your birth year, straight from the barrel.

6. Fresh from the kitchen garden in the Barossa Valley

Jacob's Creek's kitchen garden

At Jacob’s Creek you can learn about more than just wine. Pick fresh produce from the winery’s kitchen garden and then turn it into a delicious feast, which you’ll wash down with some of their signature drops.

7. Feast on the ferals in the Flinders Ranges

Prairie Hotel, Parachilna

If you’re a bit of an outback adventurer, this one’s for you. Parachilna’s Prairie Hotel has a whole host of feral animal options on their menu, from camel to emu.

Why not swap your surf and turf for a feral mixed grill with crispy roast potatoes and a red wine jus?

There are plenty of walking tours departing from Rawnsley Station or Wilpena Pound Resort if you feel like you might need to walk off that feast.

RAA member exclusive: Book your stay at the Prairie hotel by booking online here and get ready for a feral feast.
