The Gourmet Adventure Tour
A day of fine food, exceptional wine and locally crafted beer or spirits – this is true indulgence coupled with breathtaking views
Perched on a hill overlooking a valley carpeted with grape vines, circled by the distant mountains – could this day get any better!! An indulgent day of fabulous food and world class wines. The Yarra Valley is home to Victoria’s first vineyard, and we are spoilt for choice with over 60 wineries producing award winning, cool climate wines. We will drive through the Upper Yarra where you will see the rich red volcanic soil which produces exceptional conditions for vineyards, orchards and stunning flower farms.
Our day will include Wine & Champagne tasting / Cheese Tasting at a local dairy / Lunch at a winery with staggering views / and sampling Cherries & Berries or Chocolate & Ice Cream.
Itinerary
- Sample a selection of cows & goats cheese located within the 100-year-old milking shed at the Yarra Valley Dairy – Enjoy a glass of wine or a coffee whilst browsing local produce in their rustic shop
- Drive to the iconic Domaine Chandon and indulge in a tasting of bubbles! The Yarra Valley is one of the few places in Australia that produces sparkling wine using the traditional méthode champenoise.
- Head to the lesser-known Upper Yarra Region, for an entertaining wine tasting experience, coupled with an exceptional lunch at one of the “hidden gems” of the Yarra Valley. This boutique, award winning winery combines gourmet food and some of the best views in the valley.
- Our day of indulgence continues and depending on the time of year we can head to one of the oldest Cherry Orchards in the area to pick your own berries. Alternatively, you might prefer to visit the Chocolaterie & Ice Creamery
