2 Best Sights in Fleurieu Peninsula, South Australia

The 1860s stone cellar door at Coriole Vineyards sits among nasturtiums and hollyhocks on a hill with stunning views of Gulf St. Vincent  and the surrounding region. The surrounding vines produce some of Australia's most exciting Italian varietal wines, such as Fiano, Sangiovese, and Montepulciano. Coriole also grows olives and makes olive oils, which you can taste along with their wine. Enjoy all three as part of a meal at on-site restaurant Gather, which foregrounds foraged and estate-grown ingredients on a seasonal menu of delicate share plates.The hosted tastings are excellent and should be booked ahead.

Winemaker Chester Osborn is known for powerful reds and fortified wines as well as quality whites with eye-catching names (the Cenosilicaphobic Cat, anyone?). The winery, family run since 1912, is dominated by the stunning architecture of the d'Arenburg Cube, which is an attraction in itself and overlooks the vineyards, the valley, and the sea, as well as d'Arry's Verandah Restaurant. The tempting seasonal lunch-only menu uses local produce for its Modern Australian dishes.
