Winemaker Rebecca Duffy is making a splash in the local scene, producing fantastic pinot noir from grapes grown at this vineyard 4km east of Beaconsfield (try the rich and bold 'The Wizard' or the elegant 'Hot Shot'). Come for a free tasting, or indulge in a flight of pinot noir ($15). Picnic provisions from local producers are available for purchase.
