Description

The first winery ever built in the Clare Valley and one of the oldest in Australia. Whether in person or in a glass, lovers of fine wine, tourists and history buffs alike, can't go past the original. Sevenhill's celebrated old stone winery and cellar door, stately St Aloysius' Church, the College building, spacious gardens and the surrounding vineyards provide visitors with a memorable experience of a welcoming and tranquil place. Sevenhill was established in 1851 when the Jesuits who settled in the area planted vines to produce sacramental wine. From these modest beginnings, the Jesuits' focus on wine has remained, with Sevenhill adding to its sacramental wine production with an extensive range of table wines that are highly regarded throughout Australia and overseas. This free place where travellers can enjoy defined experiences and activities such as paid tours, tasting, thrill seeking activities, etc. offers toilets and drinking water. It is dog friendly.
