Please note this property is temporarily closed for renovations. An elegant contemporary building with a la carte dining upstairs and tasting room with casual grazing food downstairs set among the gentle hills and valleys on the Kangaroo Ground side of the Yarra Valley. There’s a terrace for outside dining and relaxing that gives you an impression of sitting right among the vines, and an art gallery of interesting works. The wines are excellent regional drops - look for the zesty Sauvignon Blanc and the classy Cabernet Sauvignon in particular. Sunday breakfast is served, so this might be the perfect place to start a tour of the Yarra wineries. Good coffee too. The latest Estate development is a superb, luxurious on-site accommodation option, Evelyn County Retreat.
