The oldest and most renowned winery on the Bellarine is this world-class outfit that produces some wonderful cool-climate reds and whites, as well as a standout shiraz. Tastings are offered at its sleek new cellar door, with knowledgeable staff on hand. Its winery restaurant is another reason to visit, offering regional flavoursome dishes such as produce platters, local mussels and braised lamb shoulder.
