FIRST LOOK: Barossa winery gets $30M makeover from Swiss tech family, setting a “new international benchmark for Australian luxury”

A major new chapter for the Barossa is set to begin and it’s bringing some major luxury with it.

This weekend, the 1837 Barossa estate will unveil it’s decade-long $30 million redevelopment, transforming one of the region’s most historic sites into a destination that blends wine, art, food and high-end accommodation.

Perched high above the valley in Lyndoch, the estate sits on the very spot where Colonel William Light named the Barossa in 1837. Today, the towering Barossa Colonel Light Monument still stands on the property, marking one of the most substantial private tourism investments in the region in recent history.
