Adelaide
Adelaide sits at the gateway to Australia's greatest wine regions — and its wine bars pour accordingly, with deep local lists and old-vine depth. This guide ranks the standout wine bars and wine-led restaurants on the public record: editorial best-of lists and public ratings.
The best of the best
5 of Adelaide's most celebrated wine bars — recognised by editorial best-of lists, wine-list awards and public ratings. Tap any card to visit.
Image note: photography is added as producers and venues supply it. Until then, each listing shows a simple placeholder tile with initials. These are not photographs.

Ranks 6–10 — more of Adelaide's wine bars worth your evening.
The full list
The complete ranked directory, grouped by suburb. Every wine bar links straight to the source. "Recognised by" denotes editorial best-of lists and wine-list awards — not a universal score. Venues without a public rating simply had no citable rating in our research.
