: Barossa Balloon Adventures

Your ballooning experience starts an hour and a half before sunrise

in the picturesque township of Tanunda in the world famous

Barossa Valley. From there our fun, friendly and highly experienced

team check the prevailing winds and choose the best launch site for the day.

At the launch site, the giant colourful balloon is inflated, then it's up, up

and away for an experience of a lifetime. You then drift with the wind for

approx. an hour, which gives you plenty of time to take in the sights and

sounds and just enjoy the sense of freedom.

On landing, the support vehicle arrives, the

balloon is packed away, then it’s time to head

off and pop some corks of the local bubbly and

enjoy a selection of fine Barossa food and good

ol fashioned home cooking. After breakfast

everyone is officially certified a "Balloonatic"

with your own flight certificate. In total the

whole experience takes about 5 hours.

Balloon Adventures has been a family

owned and operated business 26 years. We

have flown tens of thousands of people in that

time. We are an accredited hot air ballooning

company approved through the Civil Aviation Safety Authority. Our team is

highly experienced, with your safety and enjoyment as our primary concern.

We are very proud of the service we offer, professional with family values,

all in the same tradition that made the Barossa so famous.

“You are very good at your job…obviously the flying is a given thatyou are good at, but you also have the ability to make getting up soearly worthwhile before people leave the ground, and the mundane andnot so exciting tasks/instructions seem not so mundane! So thank youfor your sense of humour and fun, it certainly adds to the adventure”

FOOD

WINE

ART

Seppeltsfield is not only famous for itswines, there is no mistaking that

food plays an important part in thewhole experience.

Earlier this year, resident chef OwenAndrews resurrected a 'village' traditionof on-site baking, which includedgourmet Barossa beef pies, among arange of homemade fares for the winerycellar door café, as well as for theSeppeltsfield function menus.

Other delicious items in the café include'soup of the day', served with crustycroûtons; artisans platters, featuringlocal meats, cheeses, olives and pickles;

or perhaps some homemade sconeswith local jam or honey and Jerseycream.

There are also plenty of hot or coldbeverages – anyone for coffee or amilkshake?

There is a huge range of local produce,which can be matched to wine, includingchocolates – this goes with that!

Why not take a wine tour (11.30am and3.30pm, seven days a week), and takethe time to combine it with an appetisinglunch?

INDULGENCE

While fortified wines aresynonymous with Seppeltsfield,

two years ago an old tradition wasrevived when the gravity feed cellar wasrecommissioned for the 2010 vintage.

The A grade premium table red wineshave helped establish further variety,which saw Seppeltsfield win the HugoGramp Memorial Trophy for the 2011 ElmWalk Eden Valley Riesling and the RiedelTrophy for an innovative 2010 GrenacheShiraz Touriga blend.

Earlier this year, senior wine maker FionaDonald took out the 'Barons of Barossa'winemaker of the year.

Seppeltsfield remains home to a longand illustrious fortified winemakingtradition, dating back to 1851.

A feature is its centenary Para VintageTawny tastings, where everyone over theage of 18 can experience a 'drop' fromtheir year of birth.

They even have an on-site cooper

Andrew Young, and a unique 'treasure'can be purchased and taken home – asmall oak wine barrel, which can helpwith aging that favorite port.

DRINK TO GOOD HEALTH

While the food and wine atSeppeltsfield will satisfy the taste

buds, there are also plenty of stunningvisuals to take one's breath away,including in the lower section of the tastingarea, where local artists are often featured.

Through its ArtSpace @ Seppeltsfielddisplay area, South Australian Living Artists(SALA) events have been a regular feature.

Starting on August 3, Seppeltsfield willagain play a part in the SALA festival, asthe first stop in the “degustation BarossaArt and Wine Trail”, until August 26.

Open from 10.30am to 5pm seven days aweek, Seppeltsfield will partner with theJamFactory to present an excitingexhibition of glass created by a selectgroup of artists.

And now for something completelydifferent. For those who can rememberhot-air ballooning at Seppeltsfield in the1980s, there is a possibility they will returnin 2014 – but keep it secret for now!
