Louise was very friendly & knowledgeable of their product.
A good selection of wines on their list & all the ones we sampled were very nice.
Definitely recommend a visit to the cellar door.
Wonderful location, stunning wine and we were spoilt by Giulia who made us feel so very welcome.
Open 7 days, you simply must go!!
We felt welcome from the moment we stepped through the doors. The whole experience was interactive but also allowed us our own time to chat amongst ourselves.
We walked away with multiple bottles and look forward to purchasing more in the future.
A five star experience.
They have so many lovely spots to sit, inside and out, the sparkling wine was delish and their Plumm glasses are so divine we now have a pair to drink from at home!
Highly recommend stopping in for a visit.
We very much enjoy our experience, we tried a lot of their wines, and the hostess Julia was a delight to deal with. She is a character as well and really knows her wine. THe set up is really nice, surrounded by wineries with lovely views.
Nice little “homely” fit out. I think it would be perfect for smaller groups but I noticed they are also setting up an outdoor area overlooking vines where you will be able to grab a bottle and some food (they have local selection of cheeses etc you can create your own platter) and relax.
Really great wines, for me the Grenache range and also the Chenin Blanc, I this it was called “Pir” was the pick of my tastes.
Located in a handy spot near other venues but also a location that you feel you are away in the bush.. great location.
