Full description

Take a full-day wine tour in the Yarra Valley and discover some of the best wineries in Victoria just an hour's drive from Melbourne. Stop at 4 different wineries, taste a range of wines, and savor an included lunch.

After pickup from a range of meeting points, depart for the Yarra Valley. Make your first stop at Greenstone, nestled in the base of the Christmas Hills. Begin by learning the art of the swirl, sniff, and slurp from your expert wine guide and then try a range of cellar door tastings.

Move on to the next venue, Balgownie Estate, a stylish winery featuring great views and an excellent restaurant. Enjoy lunch with a glass of the estate's wine, then taste more of the wines produced there at the cellar door.

In the afternoon, travel through the gorgeous scenery to a smaller boutique winery, Yering Farm. Experience traditionally made wines and see the antique copper wine-making equipment used by the Yarra Valley’s pioneer vignerons.

Afterward, make your final stop at Soumah of Yarrah Valey. The cool climate allows this winery to specialize in styles and varieties typical to northern Italy and southeastern France, such as Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Sample the award-winning wines before returning to Melbourne.

Lovely wine tour, the wineries had some great views (perfect for any photos). Each stop had 5+ wines to try. You have X2 stop before lunch and although lovely food the lunch wasn't very filling so I'd suggest a big breakfast or snacks with you to ensure you don't get too drunk :)

Really good tour. We took in four wineries of various sizes and had lunch at one of the larger wineries. The group we were with was large with a good mix of Aussies, Poms, Germans and Americans. The wines we tasted in general were not what I really like especially the whites although there were a couple of Chardonnays which were pleasing. Favourite wine tasted was the fizzy Sharaz. Outstanding. Yer ing Farm Wines was our favourite winery visited and they also gave us a Seder tasting made from Pink Lady apples they grow on the estate. This tour is definitely worth doing.

Right from the pickup, which was very close to our hotel, we knew it was going to be a fun day. The driver/guide Tony was very entertaining and also provided great commentary on the area. The 4 wineries we visited were all excellent - Greenstone, Balgownie Estate (my favourite, all the wines were excellent and the lunch was delicious), Yering Farm and Soumah. We had a great group. I would highly recommend this winery tour of the Yarra Valley.
