Take in breathtaking views of the beautiful old vines from some of the world's most famous wine producers and the stunning Barossa Ranges, before arriving in style at Kies Family Wines for a once-in- a-lifetime experience and a warm welcome.
Allow a member of the Kies family to show you the old Shiraz vines of the Kies estate and run you through their sustainable and minimal intervention practices.
Kies Family Wines built a spectacular state-of-the-art winemaking facility in 2019. Your private experience includes a tour of the facility, with an overview of the winemaking process and Barossa Valley history.
Immerse yourself in true Barossa winemaking with a private tasting amongst the French and American Oak barrels used for maturing Kies Family Wines' premium Barossa Valley Shiraz. All wines tasted are single-vineyard and Estate-grown, and are paired with your first lunch course, the Barossa Valley Produce Platter.
Settle into the Kies Family Wines Cafe and while away the afternoon over lunch with 180° views of the Barossa Ranges. Once you are finished your lunch, your helicopter awaits at the Kies Family Wines cellar door to whisk you away for the most incredible views of the Barossa Valley.
