Having been established in Adelaide in 1939, The Bacchus Club Inc. is one of Australia’s oldest continuously running wine and food societies. The seventieth anniversary of The Bacchus Club was recently celebrated at Chloe’s Restaurant which culminated in a Federation of Wine & Food Societies of Australia Award for the host venue.

 The objects of The Bacchus Club are to: enable members and their guests to enjoy good foods and good wines in good company, and encourage better understanding and experiences in the use and service of wines.

The Club maintains a cellar of around 600 bottles for members' enjoyment at functions, including a selection of appropriately aged wines monitored by the cellarmaster.
 
The mixed membership currently stands at 31 and the Club hosts around ten functions per annum at various restaurant, winery and hotel venues in Adelaide, some black tie, some more casual events. Visitors from other wine and food societies affiliated with the Federation of Wine & Food Societies of Australia are welcome to attend our functions to promote fellowship and wine and food appreciation throughout the wider FWFSA community.

 Expressions of interest in membership of The Bacchus Club may be directed to any of the aforementioned.
