I love this place. Possible the only hipster winery in the vale but so cool it transcends the hipsters. the wines are different and great. The setting is funky and original and the staff are delightful.

Yes, they can only take small groups (no more than 6 - so our group of 10 split up and the other half went across the road to Maxwells) but it made for a great and more intimate atmosphere. The staff there really knew their stuff and they took the time to explain each wine and some of the technical details about why a particular wine tasted a certain way (instead of "with a hint of oak and chocolate" which never makes any sense to me). It's a really quirky and interesting place too (albeit small) including a mirror with a moustache on - just in case you wanted to answer the question "how would I look with a moustache?" I'll certainly be coming back here, loved the wines and atmosphere.

Great wines and very friendly staff. In my top 3 wineries in the region. The wines are all unique in their characteristics. The staff makes you feel welcome and it's just a total experience.

This very well run winery was a pleasure to visit. Completely different varieties to try some you may never have heard of, but do not be put off.

We came here after visiting other cellar and the place is nice, they had live music and we stay on the grass enjoying the sun and some drinks. Nice scenery, expensive sangria.

From the outside it just looks like a tin shed, but a surprise awaits inside. Full of old stuff, furniture, antiquey knick knacks, pinball machines, old roller skates, armchairs, piano. The wine is interesting but their labels are the best. I buy a bottle just because the label is amazing. Old ceramic bedpans are your spit bucket. Worth a visit just for a look at something different.

We recently tried the wine selection at the cellar door here. As other reviewers have mentioned, the experience is quite quirky, but unfortunately, it came across that the staff were trying overly hard to be different. Although the wines were indeed different, I did not feel that they stood out from some of the other wines available in the region. The staff seemed to disapprove of our lack of enthusiasm for the wine and we subsequently left without buying any which is unusual for us. Quirky is probably right, but not overly exciting or fun.

Did not really plan the visit ! But turned out to be quite nice ! Wine tasting and cheese ... Fun staff and good wine ... Good conversations ! Worth the pit stop ! Go for some fun conversations, lovely rustic outdoor seating and eclectic interiors.

The first thing you notice about this place is the odd collection of unusual items all about the tasting room (that's "cellar door" in Australian) including quirky furniture, an old piano and two vintage pinball machines over in the corner. This is a place with personality.Their wines also had lots of personality. In fact the three wines we tasted were all interesting mashups of Spanish, Italian and French varietal - blends that were quite unique and had personality. For example, Blends with Grenache, Shiraz, and Tempranillo, barberra+cab, Viognier+Sauvignon Blanc. All were interesting and quite one of a kind. We've tasted wines in Napa, Sonoma, France and Italy and never come across anything quite like these wines.Interesting blends and a really quirky winery make this a place that deserves a stop on your wine tasting itinerary in McLaren Vale.
