An amazing experience, definitely recommend. - A most wonderful experience. We felt so special and it was a most enjoyable day. We were greeted by a personalised sign which was a very nice touch. The wines, the tour around and information exceptional. Our picnic lunch was definitely a highlight and full credit to the team for creating such a beautiful natural environment. Our family included two children under 6 who were made most welcome. Many thanks 😊

Unique wine and food experience - At 10am, we arrived at Gemtree Winery and got a deep inside of their history, their wines/wineyards and biodynamic wine making approach. Afterwards we walked on the Gemtree Eco Trail, where the owner of Gemtree planted more than 50.000 plants. Half way, at the lake a picnic was prepared for us. It was prepared with a bottle of Gemtree wine (our choice) and by The Salopian Inn and really extraordinary food! Nearly Michelin Star quality! After another hour, we were picked up again…overall very recommended and very unique at McLaren Vale!
