The Marienberg Centre is a unique restaurant, wine bar and cellar door complex in the heart of the picturesque McLaren Vale.
The Centre incorporates the historically significant circa 1850's cottage, which was home to the local stonemason and limeburner, hence the name of the restaurant. The Marienberg Centre offers a cosy wine bar in the cottage, which is attached to the delightfully airy restaurant, showcasing some of the best regional produce the Fleurieu Peninsula has to offer.
Our cellar door facility located adjacent to the restaurant is the home of Marienberg and Fern Hill Estate wines, we welcome you to wander down during lunch and sample a large array of fine wines and local produce we have to offer along with corporate apparel and souvenirs.
