The ESTATE is internationally acclaimed for producing fine hand-crafted single vineyard wines. Situated on the floor of the valley, the ESTATE is 150 acres in size.

One of many visits to Yarrawood and as always a very pleasant experience. The food was excellent and served very quickly. The staff were not only pleasant but very engaging. We were lucky enough to have a beautiful sunny day which enhanced the outing with the beautiful surroundings and views!!

We were very happy with every plate that we were presented with. There were three of us and we all chose a separate plate to share. Food was delicious reasonably priced and the atmosphere and weather were great. The staff was very accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely be back.

Nice boutique winery. Lovely outdoor space with live music on a Sunday. Good service & food & the white wine (Riesling) was delish. Worth a visit

We highly recommend Yarrawood Estate; the staff were superb and the food was great, the surroundings were awesome, overlooking the lake and the vineyard. We were very impressed with the bottle of Sauvignon Blanc, subtly crafted in the French style, that we enjoyed. Having classy live music topped off a completely perfect couple of hours. All good! 😊

Have been here many times and am always impressed with the service and wine quality. Always the same employees whom remember you and treat you as family. Food a bit pricey but still acceptable for the quality.

We were a table of 8 celebrating a 30th Birthday. Darren and Maria made us feel like we were the only people there ( restaurant was fully booked) and in particular made our birthday boy feel very special. Could not fault either the food or the service. 11/10
