4 July

After more than three decades in the Clare Valley, Taylors Wines remains proudly family-owned and run. Taylors' ability to meld tradition and innovation results in regular recognition, both in Australia and on the highly competitive world stage.

18 July

The Barossa Valley is Australia's best known wine region, both nationally and internationally, and is South Australia's most visited tourist destination. This Uncorked will showcase the talents of two family-run wineries from this world-famous region in Dutschke and Whistler Wines.

1 August

Yalumba is Australia's oldest family owned winery. Proud of its Barossan heritage they are a fiercely independent and an extremely progressive organisation. With the experience of over 150 years comes the confidence to dare to be different and challenge the status quo, in pursuit of the extra dimensions that set Yalumba wines apart.

15 August

A small, family-run winery, Langmeil's philosophy is to produce 100% Barossa premium quality wine, made from varieties that excel in the Barossa. This will lead to the Langmeil goal of becoming recognised and regarded as one of the top global wine producers.

29 August

Kangaroo Island is South Australia's newest wine region producing wines widely regarded for their strong varietal fruit flavours and intense colours. Dudley Wines and The Islander will showcase what the Island's temperate climate and its long, slow ripening period can produce.

12 September

From three of the West's premier wine producing regions comes West Cape Howe, Mount Trio and Hay Shed Hill. This Uncorked will highlight the contrasts between some of Western Australia's primary wine regions and promote the versatility of the wines they produce.
