We ate at the cheesery. We were able to bring over a wine tasting from the cellar door. We picked 3 cheeses and enjoyed it all overlooking the vineyard.

Their Pinot Noir are reasonable ok but nothing like great wines. There are better options if you are in Gibbston valley.

Great site, food, service. Medium rear steak was perfection. Wine tasting was undertaken by knowledgeable staff on a one to one basis. Highly recommended

This is a tourist trap really, if you really want good wine at fair prices and a good cellar door experiance get away from this tourist area into the likes of Bannockburn etc. $5 for 3 tastes. Get a card for explanation, no personal service....More

This wasn’t at all what we expected but was still a great time. This isn’t really a “tour”... more of a dropoff and self guided bike ride to the winery. We were left (just two of us - no other riders) with a pretty bad...More

Really nice wine and great cheese. The wine cave tour is a must. Not necessarily the best wine I have tasted but definitely a great your to go on. Do not miss the cheeses.

Came here for wine tasting. Was served by a lovely French girl called Alex who seemed to know everything about all the wines. It was busy but she took the time to give us all the information we needed. Bit pricy but worth it.

The tour consisted of standing by some vines near the entrance to the winery and then going into the wine cave. Doing the tasting in the cave was pretty cool and we had 4 small tastings of pretty good wine.
