Finally the new cellar door is open!

 

Come in and join us for a taste of our award winning wines while enjoying the view overlooking the entire wine region. It has been some 16 months of hard work to get the cellar door up and running again. 

The new cellar door is located on the vineyards just 5 minutes outside the Willunga Township. Head towards the coast down the Aldinga Rd until you reach Delabole Rd on your left, just after the bridge. Up Delabole Rd 2.3kms on your right and here we are. The Google map is on this website in the contact us page for your further assistance. 

 

The Cellar door was formally a shearing shed known as Blackers Shed which has been up and running since the about the early 1940's. Shearers would come far and wide every year to shear their flocks. The last shearing of 1000 sheep was conducted in January 2007. David and Julie then set about restoring the shed into what is now Willunga Creek Wines home. We promise all the organic smells have gone. The aromas are still pure lively and earthy but hints of blackcurrant pepper chocolate and spice predominate.

 

We are open every weekend and public holidays and during the week by appointment. 10am - 5pm Regional platters are available. Buses are welcome by appointment.
