VISIT US

We are currently limited to 6 people at any one time in line with the Stage 4 covid-19 operating requirements. Wine tastings are now offered as seated or standing. We recommend pre-booking through our website, or by phone. 

Every tasting is hosted by Cathy, the winemaker, providing visitors with the rare opportunity to talk directly with the person who has made the wines.

There are 3 wine tasting experiences available, a seated wine tasting, a Pick & Sip Tasting and Garden Tour, and a See Smell Taste Experience Package.

Thinking of lunch, a grazing platter perhaps? We now have gourmet hampers available to order when you book an experience. You are also most welcome to bring your own picnic.

Dogs are welcome to visit us too as long as they are kept on a lead as we are working farm. Why not plan a picnic with your pooch!

EXPERIENCE THE WINE SENSORY GARDEN

The Wine Sensory Garden is the centre piece of our wine tasting experience, with it’s plantings of fruit trees, herbs, flowers and seasonal vegetables which describe and match the flavours, textures and styles of our wines.

The Garden will immerse all of your five senses in the experience and you will discover along the way how to describe the flavours that you are tasting in a wine as well as learning how simple it is to pair food with wine.

Visitors can either take themselves on a self guided tour around the Garden, or book into either the Pick and Sip Tour or the See Smell Taste Experience Package for a guided tour and tasting with Cathy.  Both of these experiences are offered 5 days a week at 10am each morning and 3pm each afternoon. You must pre-book this tour at least 2 days ahead of your visit.
