Fabulous and Fun
Our host Edward took amazing care of us - pacing and pouring to optimize our experience. We departed satisfied and not empty-handed. The wines are exceptional. The history of the estate is fascinating. A must-do in the city to get a taste of Australian wine country!

Comprehensive Tasting of Tanunda old vine wines, Engaging Host and Hostess!
A must for wine enthusiasts visiting Sydney especially if their travels do not include visiting any Australia wine producing regions!
via Viator
Nice time tasting wine
Edward gave a really good talk about the history of the wines and about the wines themselves. It was really informative and fun. And the wines were lovely.

An hour in the Barossa Valley without the flight.
If you love dry wine, red more than white and are unfamiliar with the Barossa Valley, this is a high end introduction. The wines we tried were complex and varied. Edward our sommelier was knowledgeable and engaging.
Response from the operator: Hi Jennifer, Thank you for the review and the kind words for Edward. He is an incredibly passionate host and loves the feedback. You are right: it is an ideal way to escape to the Barossa for an hour while still enjoying the sights of Sydney! Every wine lover who visits (or lives in Sydney) will love booking a little tasting at our Cellar Door in the Rocks. Cheers, The Chateau Tanunda Team

Worth the time and money!
Delightful tasting of Barossa wine. Great pours and a nice variety of old vine wine. A great way to taste Barossa without the extra travel.
Response from the operator: Hi Steph, Thank you for your review. We are very proud of our Barossa Old Vine heritage, being the home to the oldest Shiraz, Cabernet, Semillon and Grenache vines in the world. So glad you enjoyed the Old Vine Expressions tasting and for sharing it here! Cheers, The Chateau Tanunda Team

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Sydney Cellar Door - Old Vine Expressions Wine Tasting: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sydney.
How much does Sydney Cellar Door - Old Vine Expressions Wine Tasting cost?
+
Prices start at $70 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sydney usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Sydney Cellar Door - Old Vine Expressions Wine Tasting take?
+
Plan for about 0.8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Sydney is not rushed.
Is Sydney Cellar Door - Old Vine Expressions Wine Tasting worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 35 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sydney, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Sydney Cellar Door - Old Vine Expressions Wine Tasting?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Sydney Cellar Door - Old Vine Expressions Wine Tasting suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Sydney Cellar Door - Old Vine Expressions Wine Tasting?
+
Around 12 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Sydney can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Sydney and add a light layer if any part of the 0.8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Sydney Cellar Door - Old Vine Expressions Wine Tasting start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Sydney within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Sydney?
+
On Outty we rank every Sydney experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include WILD Wombat and Kangaroo Day Tour, All Inclusive, Depart Syd: Blue Mountains Best All Inclusive with Local Guide, Blue Mountain Small Group Tour All Inclusive. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Sydney?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Sydney?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
