Story: Christmas at Sandalford
Episode: 2
Presenter: Trevor Cochrane
Air Date: 10th December
Trevor visits a world class venue and one of Western Australia’s most awarded attractions to spend the holiday.
- Sandalford’s estate had its genesis in 1840 when Queen Victoria granted John Septimus Roe, Western Australia’s first Surveyor General, 4,000 acres of land on the banks of the Swan River in honor of his service. In 1992, the Prendiville family – who have diversified national tourism assets – purchased Sandalford Wines and developed the estates into today’s highly regarded tourism brand which attracts hundreds of visitors from around the globe each day.
- Sandalford has received over 80 major tourism and hospitality awards in the past 2 decades including a Gold Australian Tourism Award for best winery. Currently, Sandalford Wines is Western Australia’s RESTAURANT OF THE YEAR, plus Best Restaurant in a Winery and Best Contemporary Australian Dining (2023 Restaurant and Catering Hostplus Awards)
- Sandalford’s flagship Prendiville Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon from our Margaret River vineyard won Gold in this year’s James Halliday 2023 Chardonnay Cabernet Challenge PLUS.
- Our expansive cellar door is the place to sample our latest wine releases (think new reds Grenache, Sangiovese and Tempranillo as well as the classic Swan Valley varietals Chenin blanc, Verdelho) or lean in for a Food and Wine Pairing (a 30 minute guided flight of 5 wines and matching canapes) or go straight to the Ultimate Heritage Indulgence experience (an indepth 90 minute tour).
- Sandalford have superb fortified wines which also make perfect Xmas gifting, which are tastable at the cellar door! Combine your restaurant experience with Christmas shopping
