Yarra Valley Wine Tour

Wine Tasting & Lunch

1st stop.

Soumah of Yarra Valley brings a taste of northern Italy to Victoria’s wine country. Located in Gruyere, this boutique winery is celebrated for its cool-climate varietals like Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, alongside Italian-inspired gems such as Nebbiolo, Savarro, and Brachetto. Enjoy a guided tasting at the cellar door, indulge in rustic fare at Ai Fiori Trattoria, or stay overnight in vineyard-view accommodation. With sweeping landscapes and a passion for terroir, Soumah offers a refined escape just an hour from Melbourne.

Unconventionally bold

2nd stop.

Payten & Jones in Healesville is a bold, unconventional gem in the Yarra Valley wine scene. Known for their minimal-intervention wines—think cloudy pours, wild yeasts, and no filtration—this cellar door offers a raw, edgy tasting experience that’s as much about personality as it is about flavour. Set in a funky urban space with street art, a beer garden vibe, and a laid-back crew, it’s the perfect spot to sip vibrant Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Sangiovese while soaking up the local energy. Come for the wine, stay for the stories..

Known for pioneering Tempranillo in the region, their cellar door showcases bold, handcrafted varietals like Pinot Noir, Shiraz, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Pair your tasting with a Mediterranean-inspired meal at their seasonal restaurant, where fresh local ingredients meet stunning vineyard vistas. Whether you're sipping or dining, Tokar Estate delivers a refined yet welcoming escape.
