Tour Bits & Tips
-
The Adelaide Plains located half way between Adelaide and the Barossa Valley is another recognised wine growing region that not many people have heard about. It is quite small with only 640 plus hectares of vineyards and only a handful of cellar doors. These wine regions seem to pop up everywhere in South Australia!
-
The Apex Bakery in the township of Tanunda continue to bake products the same way as when they started in 1924, with great Barossa passion and know how. In keeping with their mission of preserving the true Barossa style of baking, the fourth generation of the Fechner family continue to light up the wood fired oven to bake their delicious products daily.....How's that for old school traditions! Yum!!
