Why Micro-Weddings Are the New Way to Say “I Do”! Big weddings are out, and intimate celebrations are in. Couples are choosing micro-weddings for their relaxed vibe, personal touch, and focus on what truly matters - love, connection, and great food and wine.

At Tipsy Hill Estate in McLaren Vale, you can celebrate surrounded by stunning gardens and vineyard views, toast at the Bec Hardy Cellar Door, or enjoy a luxury Premium Picnic among the vines. It’s all about creating a day that feels effortless, meaningful, and unmistakably yours.

Your wine’s sparkling in more ways than one! Those “crystals” at the bottom aren’t glass — they’re wine diamonds, and they’re one of nature’s prettiest surprises in a bottle.

We’re embracing the season with exciting updates - from a relaxed new direction at The Kitchen at Bec Hardy, to celebrating 45 years of Pertaringa with a special Award Winners Six Pack. Plus, we’re proud to unveil two brand-new, small-batch releases from the historic Lower Tintara Vineyard: a Wine Club exclusive Fiano 2025 and a fast favourite Grenache 2025.
