A truly unique insight into one of Australia's leading wine regions
While it is the well-known heartbeat of Victoria’s finest wine production, this Yarra Valley experience is the only one of its kind. To begin your once in a lifetime adventure, take an incredibly scenic drive along the Yarra River, through a historic gold mining town, valleys and past mobs of wild kangaroos. A warehouse-cum-factory space in the Yarra Valley makes a real statement. There’s an organic, artisan style bakehouse and a unique coffee bean-roasting facility. There’s also something incredibly connective about wine tasting in the very place the wine is crushed, fermented, bottled and stored. Get involved with a look behind the scenes and experience the exciting sights, tastes and smells. Experience a private barrel room tasting with the wine maker. Grab a glass and wander out onto the sun-drenched patio. Relax, or enjoy a game of petanque against the stunning back drop of the Yarra Ranges. Spend an afternoon you’ll never forget at one of Victoria’s best kept secrets – a privately owned homestead and vineyard. It spans 1000 hectares and 4 generations (some of whom you’ll meet and all of whom recently took part in a history making harvest). Arrive for an elaborate feast of regional produce and a private tasting in an original Stockman’s bush hut. Explore the first site in Victoria to unearth the elusive black truffle. Boil billy tea, make your own damper. Learn secrets of the harvest and the family’s conservation policies. Plant a tree, search for wedge tailed eagles, near extinct yellow helmeted honey eaters and an elusive platypus. Enjoy a magnificent bushwalk to a stunning waterfall. Learn about the upkeep and running of a working Australian cattle farm. Time will stand still and you’ll never want to leave this idyllic retreat.
