Sevenhill Cellars & St Aloysius Church
Sevenhill Cellars
Founded by Jesuits in 1851, this is the Clare Valley's oldest winery, still producing Mass wine, with an old stone church beside it.
Founded at Sevenhill in 1851 by Austrian Jesuits, this winery is the oldest in the Clare Valley. It is still owned by the Jesuits and produces Mass wine as well as Riesling, Shiraz, and table wines. The cellar door is housed in an old stone building, and tastings are free or cost a small fee. The Saint Aloysius stone church, completed in 1875, and its underground crypt beside the winery can be visited freely. The winery is right along the Sevenhill section of the Riesling Trail, so it is convenient for cyclists, and it is busy on weekends.
