Cellar doors that take the dog

The Barossa’s cellar-door culture is genuinely dog-forward.

Chateau Yaldara and Kies Family Wines at Lyndoch keep dogs welcome on the lawns, Seppeltsfield allows dogs in the grounds, and Rockford at Tanunda is famously friendly.

Policies vary door to door - the listings state each one.

Between tastings, the towns are lead-on: Tanunda’s main street, Angaston’s shade trees and the Barossa Trail between villages.

Good to know

Do Barossa wineries allow dogs?

Many do on lawns and outdoor areas - Chateau Yaldara, Kies, Seppeltsfield grounds and Rockford among them. Policies differ per door; each listing states its rule and any fees.

Are dogs allowed inside the cellar doors?

Generally the lawns and outdoor spaces rather than the tasting rooms - worth confirming ahead for tastings in hot or wet weather.

When is the best time to visit the Barossa with a dog?

March-May and September-November. Summer heat limits midday walks - the vine rows offer little shade.

How far is the Barossa from Adelaide?

About an hour’s drive north-east.
