Winter Weekends in the shed at Paxton Wines with Doughballs Pizza

Just 45 minutes south of Adelaide, Paxton Wines sits at the gateway to McLaren Vale – the perfect spot to enjoy a cosy winter winery experience with friends, family, and even your furry companions.

Every Saturday and Sunday from 11am–4pm, their Winter Pop-Up transforms into a warm and welcoming haven. Located in a new undercover space overlooking the lawns and sweeping views of Landcross Farm, you can relax in comfort, sheltered from the elements with plenty of seating, gas heaters, and pull-down blinds for those breezy days.

Gourmet wood-fired pizzas and sweet and savoury doughballs are served fresh by Doughballs, while our Pop-Up Bar pours a selection of Paxton's certified organic wines and local beers. Booking your group in is free of charge and we can reserve a space for large groups - please call cellar door for details. It's the perfect space for a celebration with your nearest and dearest.

Over at the Cellar Door, the wood fire will be crackling daily from 10am–5pm. Settle in for a tasting flight paired with local cheeses, savoury nibbles, and regional produce. Planning a group visit? Please call ahead so we can prepare for your arrival.

And yes – Paxton is proudly dog-friendly! Well-behaved pooches on a lead are welcome to join the fun.
