Petaluma offers new wine tasting experience in the Adelaide Hills

Petaluma and Croser have launched a new premium tasting experience at their Adelaide Hills Cellar Door. 

The Glass Room Experience offers visitors a private food and wine tasting journey with the opportunity to experience some of the rarest wines in the Petaluma portfolio.

With capacity for only 8-10 people, The Glass Room Experience has been designed to create an intimate experience and is named after the ceiling installation of 540 wine glasses that have been placed to resemble the rolling contours of the Adelaide Hills. 

The setting also has vineyards views and and a feature wall of the original riddling racks where Croser sparkling was stored.

Petaluma and Croser cellar door manager Linda Popp says the experience gives visitors the opportunity to try back vintages from the Petaluma and Croser portfolios, with some bottles dating back 25 years. 

“We want our visitors to enjoy exclusive use of our beautiful Glass Room, as if the experience is a private event that is curated just for them," Popp said. 

"Whether they are after an educational experience or simply want to enjoy a wine and food journey they will hopefully find this worthwhile.

“The experience will see guests taste some of the rarest vintages in the Petaluma portfolio that are unavailable to purchase from anywhere except our cellar door, where they have been under pristine cellaring conditions for optimum drinking and only available in small releases from our museum wines portfolio. 

“Guests will be offered generous servings of wine, not simply tasting pours, so that they can savour each flavour. These will be purposefully paired with a three-course tasting menu from Woodside Providore with local baked bread, highlighting the stunning produce available right here in the Adelaide Hills." 

Visitors will be able to choose from one of two experiences, each highlighting a range of premium wines.

For $100 per person, The Glass Room Experience, will feature the best wines from the Croser and Petaluma portfolio matched with a three-course menu from Woodside Providore. 

For more serious enthusiasts, The ‘Museum Release’ Glass Room Experience will feature a mix of super premium, current and back vintage wines from the Petaluma portfolio, at $150 per person, paired with the three-course menu.
