Raise Your Glass: 5 Wineries in Langhorne Creek That Pair Local Wine with Tasty Food

Let me tell you something: you haven’t truly lived until you’ve sipped wine in the heart of Langhorne Creek, soaking in the serenity while nibbling on something utterly irresistible. Whether you’re in it for the fine wine or the food that complements it so beautifully, this little corner of the world does not disappoint. And, lucky you, I’ve done the groundwork to bring you the crème de la crème—five heavenly wineries where local wine meets tasty food to create an experience worth savouring.

1. Windsong Wines: Where Creativity and Wine Intertwine

If there were ever a place where wine, art, and literature got together for a tea party, Windsong Wines would be it. This boutique gem blends estate-grown, small-batch wines with a curated display of local artistry and literature. Its cellar door is as peaceful as it is inspiring—truly a treat for the senses.

Start your tasting with their sparkling Rosé, then meander through the complex charms of their Tempranillo. While you sip, take in the art exhibitions and browse through books by local authors. They rotate the displays frequently, so there’s always something new to admire. Pair all this with their eco-conscious vineyard practices—planting native flora for biodiversity—and you’re in for a guilt-free indulgence.

Pro tip: Time your visit with one of their live music events or book launches for a cultural bonus alongside your vintages.

2. Little Pete Brewing: Brewing Up Relaxation Done Right

Okay, technically not a winery, but hear me out—Little Pete Brewing does craft beer so well that even wine die-hards grudgingly add it to their itinerary. Sitting pretty with its open-air bar, lawn seating, and shady umbrellas, this spot screams easy, breezy afternoons.

The build-your-own platter option is a crowd favourite. Load it up with all the Fleurieu region goodies, pair it with a cold pint of their Hazy Pale Ale or Stout, and you’ve got yourself a winning combo. Families, couples, friends, or even furry pals on leashes will find it welcoming. It's the perfect place to enjoy relaxed nibbles with a beer in one hand and sweeping vineyard views in front of you.

3. Kimbolton Wines: Next-Level Pairings in a Stunning Setting

Kimbolton Wines doesn’t just deliver wine and cheese—it elevates it to an art form. Their wine and cheese flights will have your taste buds singing hallelujah. Think crisp Fiano paired with a creamy local brie, or bold Montepulciano teamed up with a nutty cheddar.

This family-run winery features a modern, glass-walled, rooftop cellar door that gives you panoramic views of the lush vineyards. Oh, and the wines? They’re all about unique, alternative varieties that steer clear of the mainstream. You’ll leave here not just with a favourite vintage but with memories of a tasting experience that feels both personal and polished.

If you’re travelling with a group, book a private tasting to delve into their selection—oops! Scratch that, let’s just say to enjoy their wines more intimately.

4. Angas Plains Wines: Cosy Vibes, Fabulous Wines

Here’s a little secret for those who love a relaxed, cosy vibe: Angas Plains Wines. Their beautiful, family-run operation is the epitome of warmth and hospitality. And the wines? Straight-up delicious, featuring award-winning Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon that will leave you daydreaming about another glass.

Pair these beauties with their locally inspired food options—a seasonal, hearty offering that’s as comforting as a hug. This is also one of my top recommendations for those who enjoy live music events. A sunny afternoon, good tunes, and a glass of Chardonnay? Pure magic.

Angas Plains Wines prides itself on sustainability, so while you’re sipping away, know that they’re doing their part for the planet. That’s another reason to raise your glass, don’t you think?

5. The Winehouse: A Tasting Adventure All in One Spot

If you can’t make up your mind about which winery to visit, head straight to The Winehouse. This one-stop tasting haven showcases wines from four boutique producers, along with a craft beer option for the hops lovers in your group. There’s something here for everyone.

Their tasting flights are a fun way to sample several styles without feeling rushed. Feeling peckish? The restaurant serves casual but quality dishes that pair effortlessly with your drink of choice. Between the bright atmosphere and a menu designed to please, settling in here feels like catching up with a favourite friend.

Bonus: The Winehouse also doubles as an event space, so if you’re planning something special—a birthday, perhaps—it’s a fantastic venue option.

There You Have It!

Langhorne Creek’s wineries (and, alright, breweries too) don’t just churn out fantastic beverages—they offer experiences that feed the soul. Whether it’s the creative flair of Windsong Wines or Kimbolton’s pairing perfection, each stop will feel like a little slice of heaven.

So grab your friends, or treat yourself solo, and get sipping. Life’s too short to drink boring wine—or to miss out on food this tasty!

Cheers,
