The Confessional reviews
19The best winery we went to all day! 5 stars for everything and DO NOT leave without ordering a bowl of their fries!
The best find in McLaren Vale.
Funky set up, brilliant inexpensive food and a great variety of wines. I am sure that everyone will find something to their taste. And the owners are exceptionally friendly and generous. They made our day
Hands down the best wine in McLaren Vale! I just know I will never be disappointed with the quality of their wine no matter what vintages. I also love how passionate the winemakers are about their wines and they are super friendly and genuine people. If you want good wine from McLaren Vale, this is a must visit.
Best winery we visited in Adelaide Hills. Awesome service from 2 friendly blokes who had worked the industry their whole lives.
Great wine knowledge and advice on the area, couple cheaky camping spots etc.
AMAZING wine and cheese board.
Hats off to em. Legends at their craft.
What a unique cellar door. The wines are incredible and it’s great that the actual winemaker is the one pouring your tasting! Beautiful view of the vineyards and it was so nice and warm on a chilly winter afternoon. The potato pizza is incredible and the pairing of the Chardonnay was perfect. Must do if your visiting McLaren vale. No pretentious wine talk - just back to the old school style of how customer service And quality food and wine used to be! I’ll be back!
Drove down after having a bottle last night - it was fabulous and they were closed for Vintage.but I heard a noise out back and went around and Adam opened up for a quick tasting and I joined the int club. Thanks Adam - had a La Contessa tonight - it was very good.
One of my McLaren favourites!
On my birthday I brought 4 friends along to duck into The Confessional for a wine tasting. No booking, Adam welcomed us in and we had a fantastic time learning from his experiences. Every single wine (both whites and reds) were great. We have been to a lot of wineries - Looking back it was one of our best experiences & wines. Most of us bought a bottle or more. Have recommended other friends and family.
Great food and great wine. The whole experience is delightful - one of the best in the Vale. We will keep coming back.
No tasting fee and lots of wines to try. Downside was lack of explanation and the wines not up to par in our opinion.
Great place to visit very friendly and knowlegable staff the wines are tasty as is the food and not overpriced a must to call in if you are down this way
Good rustic vibe and could not find a fault with any of their wines. Both were very knowledgeable and have a clear and apparent passion. Highly recommend the cheese board.
Will definitely be going back!
Had a wonderful afternoon with good friends!
Shared a couple of platters, paired with top notch wines.
Maysie was entertaining, the guys were friendly, educated and very affable.
Highly revcommended, at the risk of missing out for ourselves.
Brilliant afternoon sampling some beautiful wines! The guys were both so passionate about each wine and also very chatty and entertaining. Adam spent much of his time just chatting with us as we were the only ones there for part of our time there. Masie the dog was just gorgeous! Amazing spot in McLaren Vale to spend a sunny Saturday arvo Highly recommended!
Lovely collection of wines shared happily by Adam each time we have been there. Kids love the platter and pizza option, and we enjoy the wines!
Lovely relaxed cellar door with simple menu and tasty wines. The food was delicious and the staff were very accommodating. Thanks for a great afternoon
Wow.what an amazing experience.good wine, amazing host, pizza to die for and one of the best platters in the McLaren Vale.a must to see
This was our favorite stop on a two day wine tour. Adam, Andrew, and Maysie were so welcoming and the wine tasting was the best we had experienced. The quality and flavor was amazing! We will definitely go back! Andrew, thank you for an amazing tasting experience!
What a great place to bring a bus load of people. The guys make everyone feel welcome the minute you step in the door. They offered me as the bus driver a cool drink or coffee to show their thoughtfulness to the person suppling customers. A must visit again. So friendly. Will be leaving this establishment on my list.
