We’re big believers in truly experiencing the local area when on holidays. And, what better way to do that than having a local glass of wine with dinner while camping.
The Shoalhaven is fortunate to have many amazing wineries right here - and their wines are not to be missed. So, here are the Holiday Haven best wines picks while holidaying in the Shoalhaven.
2017 Frizzante Dulce

905 Bolong Road, Shoalhaven Heads
Phone (02) 4448 5003
Opening Hours: Open DAILY 11am – 5pm
2014 Petite Rouge 'The Kim'
‘This is a lovely style of Rose made from Chambourcin, taken off skins after 24 hours and then finished off. Subtle hints of Turkish delight, musk and raspberry tones. A refreshing summers evening tipple, fabulous match for an antipasto platter.’

520 Illaroo Road, Cambewarra
http://cambewarraestate.com.au
Phone (02) 4446 0170
Opening Hours: 10am – 5pm Friday to Sunday and selected Public Holidays.
2014 Shiraz
‘An outstanding Barossa vintage. A dark garnet colour with a fragrant aroma of black cherries and full ripe plums, with a touch of savoury spice. A fruit driven palate balanced by smooth and supple tannins. The velvety palate culminates in a lengthy finish marked by oak nuances.’
From Yarrawa Estate:
43B Scotts Road, Kangaroo Valley
Phone (02) 4465 1165
Opening Hours: 10.30am – 5.30pm Saturday, 12.30pm – 5.30pm Sunday
2017 Cats Meow Rose
‘A big call – our best Rose in 11 years. A bigger call – it’s in the Top 10 Rose’s we have ever had – anywhere. A fresh, vibrant co-ferment (this is when red and white grapes are mixed together and fermented together – usually rose is made from straight red grapes or, believe it or not, blending finished red and white wine together) we think it’s quite something. It’s very complex with hints of a variety of summer fruit, but still light and crisp. For the record, it’s our fastest selling wine in 11 years…’
From Silos Estate & Wileys Creek:
B640 Princes Highway, Berry
Phone (02) 4448 6082
Opening Hours: Open DAILY 11am – 5pm
2017 Moscato
‘Mostly Gordo with some Frontignac grapes - blended to give lifted muscaty aromatics with hints of summer fruits. Fermentation halted to give perfect alcohol - sugar balance.’
From Mountain Ridge Wines:
1 Coolangatta Rd, Coolangatta
Phone 02 4448 5825
Opening Hours: Weekdays 11am -3pm & Weekends 11am – 5pm
