Range Tasting of sparkling wine and self guided tour of this beautiful estate
Lunch is a true highlight of the day, enjoyed at Soumah’s restaurant, AI FIORI Trattoria where Northern Italian cuisine takes centre stage. Begin with a generous antipasti board, designed to share and showcase fresh, seasonal flavours, followed by your choice of main course. Your meal is perfectly paired with a glass of wine—personally selected as the standout from your earlier tasting—bringing the experience full circle.

Your day includes a premium cheese and wine pairing at De Bortoli Estate, hosted in the exclusive VIP or Trophy Room for an intimate and elevated experience. Guided by knowledgeable hosts, you’ll enjoy a curated selection of cheeses perfectly matched to De Bortoli’s standout wines, including the iconic and multi award-winning Noble One—renowned as one of Australia’s finest dessert wines. This relaxed yet refined setting offers the perfect finale, bringing together flavour, storytelling, and a true sense of place in the Yarra Valley. Please note should De Bortoli be unavailable due to private events such as weddings, we offer an equally enjoyable alternative at St Huberts Estate, featuring a cheese board paired with their estate wines in a beautiful vineyard setting.
On the way back to your hotel, we drive into Heritage Golf and Country Club — two Jack Nicklaus-designed 18-hole courses, a residential estate, and home to the Yarra Valley Lodge Hotel. But the real reason we slow down here is the locals: a large mob of wild kangaroos that lives right on the course. We take our time, cameras ready, for what's often the most photographed moment of the day.

Great tour guide, lunch at Soumah was a highlight, and meeting new friends! Convenient pick up. Great tastings and more than we expected.
Lovely day. Fantastic tasting experience with De Bortoli and Domaine Chandon. Lunch at a third vineyard was excellent. Driver was knowledgeable and very attentive. Highly recommend.
Happy that we could include your requested winery ! All the best
