Support local. Support our wine regions.
It’s been a devastating year for many South Australian wineries. When the bushfires spread through our state, many vineyards were destroyed or damaged. And with the COVID-19 pandemic came forced closures. Easing restrictions has allowed some wineries to re-open for partial trading, however many are still struggling with trading restrictions and the downturn in tourism.
The ³ÉÈË´óƬ is a proud educator of so many fantastic local alumni winemakers who are still busy producing some of the best wines our country, and the world, has to offer.
Many of our wineries have adopted delivery services, promotions, package deals and take-away food and beverage options to keep their businesses afloat.
Browse our list of alumni wineries that are offering wines delivered straight to your doorstep, along with some other delicious deals to quench your thirst and take advantage of the final offers available before restrictions lift. You’ll be supporting local South Australian business and your fellow alum – so no guilt here.
