National Wine Centre

The National Wine Centre sits near the corner of Hackney Road and Botanic Road in Adelaide, beside the Botanic Gardens on the edge of the CBD. A major attraction and Australia's national wine centre, it celebrates the country's renowned wine industry — combining interactive exhibitions, tastings and an extensive cellar with a beautiful setting, making it a genuine destination for wine lovers and visitors alike.

The appeal is that combination of engaging wine education, the chance to taste from an extensive range of Australian wines and a lovely location beside the gardens, ideal for learning about wine, sampling some excellent drops or simply enjoying a glass in a beautiful setting. In a wine-loving state like South Australia, it's a fitting and fascinating showcase of the national wine story.

With a 4.5 rating from more than 1,800 reviews, it's clearly delighting its visitors. Exhibitions, tasting options, opening hours, events and pricing vary, so it's worth checking current details before you go — particularly if you're planning around a tasting or an event — while looking forward to exploring one of Adelaide's most distinctive attractions beside the Botanic Gardens.
