Cellar Door
Visitors are welcome to our cellar door. Open Friday-Sun 11am-5pm.
Our Cellar Door is part of the winery building and is perched above the Mitchel River Valley. From the deck you can see the vineyard, the limestone escarpment, and the sweeping views of the valley below.
Please note bookings are only open 3 months in advance.
Tasting Room
The Tasting Room is an intimate, indoor space designated for wine tastings. Wine tastings are tailored for groups of 2-8 people and designed to be an immersive experience set at your own pace. Tastings include your choice of any 6 wines, cost $15/person and take approximately 45 mins.

(weather permitting)
The deck is the best place to enjoy a casual glass of wine and a tasting board. The sweeping views of the vineyard, escarpment and Mitchell River Valley are hard to beat. Umbrellas offer some cover, but the Gippsland weather can be unpredictable, so warm jackets can come in handy. Please be aware if the weather is unsuitable alternative indoor seating may not be available.
Dogs welcome on the deck area!
Lawn
There is lawn rolling down the west side of the cellar door that is great for larger groups and walk in guests. Grab a rug and some cushions and relax with a glass of wine and a platter then enjoy a picnic style afternoon sun.
We don't take bookings on the deck, it's all on a first come basis. There is not a lot of shade there either, we have sunscreen but we would recommend you also bring a hat.
Food
We don’t have a restaurant, but we do have two lovely food platters available that are well-matched to our wines and perfect for sharing between two.
The platters are a collaboration with some of our favourite neighbouring foodies and are 100% local. These are set platters with contributions from Sardine Eatery + Bar, Northern Ground, The Long Paddock, Paynesville Pantry & Seasalt Sourdough and can be enjoyed all day at the cellar door. We also stock a range of local craft beers.
