Joadja Winery

Corner Joadja Road and Greenhills Road, Berrima NSW 2577

Joadja Vineyards and Winery is the oldest vineyard and winery in the Southern Highlands wine area (established 30 years). You can enjoy the beautiful scenic vineyards and award-winning cool-climate wines, just 90 minutes from Sydney and close to Wollongong and Canberra.

The small winery has a very "hands on" approach, with some stainless steel and an emphasis on traditional winemaking methods. These include minimal intervention, the use of oak fermentation and maturation, and first quality fruit.

Using winemaking techniques from both new world technology and old world tradition, all wines are crafted on site, at cool optimal ambient temperatures. The cool climate allows the grapes to develop intense flavour, freshness, and balance and Joadja harnesses this in the winery.

9 Wilkinson Street, Berrima NSW 2577
High on the hill overlooking the historic colonial village of Berrima is Harper's Mansion. The 1834 two storey brick house proudly sits in a couple of acres of fine cool climate gardens. The House has been extensively restored and is now a superb example of an early Australian Georgian country house. The roses planted along the fence line from the front of the house down to the gate were selected for their suitability by Heather Cant, a local National Trust member and noted gardener and rose collector. The selection was based on the period when Harpers was built and for their continuous flowering habit. The garden also boasts a long hazelnut walk, a large pond home to native frogs and an old well. A special delight for children, young and old, is the extensive maze, formed by a tall leylandii hedge, established over 10 years ago.

Berrima Courthouse

Wilshire Street, Berrima NSW 2577
Today visit to the Berrima courthouse is much more a unique theatrical experience rather than a foreboding one. The highlight of the tour is the spectacular Son et Lumiere (sound and light show) titled 'Treachery Treason and Murder' a dramatic and moving audio visual experience masterfully depicting the most infamous trial of the 1840s. As you walk into the main courtroom you are surrounded on all sides by juror's public gallery, witnesses, and barrister's clerks of the court. As the preamble comes to a conclusion the judge appears out of the darkened courtroom to commence his sentencing of the two murderers. The Berrima courthouse has become one of the 'must see' attractions for those that visit the southern highlands and historic Berrima. Voted best attraction in the 2014 Rural Press business awards just recently awarded a winning certificate of excellence by Trip Advisor 2015. ...
