About this tour

What to expect
Your driver arrives at your Melbourne address and drives you through the rolling vineyards to your first winery. You'll taste at three carefully chosen cellar doors, each picked for what they do best rather than commission kickbacks. Allow 45 minutes per venue—enough time to chat with winemakers, learn the story behind the wines, and decide what to take home. Mid-afternoon, pop into the chocolaterie for a browse and a break. Throughout the day, the vehicle stays parked wherever you're tasting; your driver isn't hovering. The route adapts if you want longer at one stop or to skip another entirely.
Good to know
Lunch is on you—wineries have food options or you can ask your driver for restaurant suggestions. Book ahead so wineries know you're coming. Wear comfortable shoes for winery grounds. The region is hilly but the tour suits all fitness levels; walking is optional at each venue.
