Yarra Valley food & wine daytourA relaxing day out with an emphasis on a wide range of wine accompanied by superb food and stunning scenery.HIGHLIGHTS
We start our day around 9.30am and travel via the ‘scenic route’, through historic Warrandyte and Wonga Park. Our first stop is a quaint and welcoming vineyard on the valley fringe - Kellybrook Winery. Here you’ll enjoy a private audience with the winemaker in his authentic ‘tin shed’. We then travel to Yering Station for a pre-lunch wine-tasting in an historic 1859 building surrounded by local artworks and produce. Lunch is a short walk away at stunning Yering Station with its world-class views and cuisine. Browse the menu. After a relaxing lunch we head to the very famous and very French Domaine Chandon. Choose from a range of premium sparkling wines (methode champenoise) while nibbling on cheese and bread. Our final stop for the day, is at the De Bortoli winery. As Italian as Domaine Chandon is French, it’s a great finish with smooth dessert wines and fortifieds. Our journey home takes us through Steels Creek and the rolling Christmas Hills. Expect to be back to your accommodation by around 6.30pm. Only one hour from Melbourne, the beautiful, lush Yarra Valley is recognised internationally as a premium, cool-climate region known for its elegant wines.
