Coonawarra Cabernet Celebrations 2025 | All October

 

Coonawarra Cabernet Celebrations is one of South Australia’s best regional wine-based events, with over 70 unique food and wine experiences designed to showcase and celebrate the Coonawarra wine region’s beautiful signature red wine: Cabernet Sauvignon.

Enjoy the spring-time celebrations across the month of October, with every week/weekend featuring themed events.

The annual festival offers a combination of food and wine events, tasting experiences, live music and more throughout October.  From degustation dinners to masterclasses, vertical tastings to winery tours the region will offer wine enthusiasts the opportunity to savour world-class wines, enjoy the country hospitality and discover why Coonawarra is regarded as Australia’s premier Cabernet Sauvignon producing region.

Tee off with the who’s who of Coonawarra at the Cabernet Celebrations Golf Day, try your hand at blending your own wine, enjoy a sparkling cabernet breakfast, take a winery tour, indulge in a chocolate and wine tasting, graze the day away and dine with winemakers at dinners to delight.

With a range of renowned regional wineries offering up events all month long, there is no shortage of activities to celebrate, activate and educate your senses.
