When you visit the Barossa you will discover a place where luxury retreats offer award-winning wines, cuisine and panoramic views. Known as Australia's wine capital, Barossa features more than 80 cellar doors and is just over an hour's drive from Adelaide. You'll find some of the world's oldest Shiraz wines here and the region is home to some of Australia's most famous brands including Henschke, Yalumba, Jacob's Creek, Peter Lehmann and Wolf Blass.

Traditions of growing, preparing and presenting regional produce in modern mouth-watering dishes is evident in cafes, restaurant and bistros.

Here you can browse amongst her personally selected regional specialty goods, purchase one of her signed books or simply sit back and take in the view.

On arrival at Lambert Estate at Angaston, you will enjoy a structured wine tasting whilst sampling local seasonal produce from gourmet platters. Main course follows, and is a feast for the senses, with two signature dishes, salad and vegetables. You may wish to purchase a glass of wine from the impressive wine selection, or enjoy a coffee accompanied with their popular Chocolatier (Chocolate Port).

Leaving Lambert Estate, travel to Mengler Hill Lookout for sweeping views over the valley and then onto the Barossa Valley Chocolate Company your final stop for the day.
