Lovely experience brought by the lovely ladies working there. So friendly and welcoming. We had couple of pizzas all was great especially the lamb and the mushroom pizzas. Wide selection of wine available and breathtaking views. Although it was really cold outside, it was perfectly warmed on the inside. We ordered extra pizzas as the kids were still hungry and they were happy to do it even after they have closed the kitchen for the day. We will definitely visit again.

Pizzas were tasty however there were swarms of bees/wasps around the whole external part of the winery so we could not eat in peace! Everything was great apart from this however I would definitely not go back as it was quite unsettling! Management were ignorant to this so we moved our plates and drinks indoors.

The pizza was absolutely disgusting - flavourless tasteless yuck
I guess it doesn’t matter when large groups of girls on wine tours are coming in hey.

Wine and pizza is beautiful. But visit spoiled by appalling loud group, shouting and screaming to the point that conversation is impossible. Many diners moved tables and left early. Proprietor should have done some gentle management of the situation, instead of ignoring the issue.

The staff were super friendly and fun. We watched a few demonstrations given to other groups and it was clear that the staff not only enjoyed the wine but enjoyed Educating the audience about it and sharing their experiences. Happy to answer questions and super friendly and approachable. Pizzas were amazing, The mushroom was my favourite but I didn’t mind the fig at all. Everything we tried was really well put together and it made the whole experience just wonderful. Highly recommend.

A parallel building to Maroondah Highway houses the restaurant & what looks like a temporary long marquee to house weekend throngs now that Melbies are out in force. If you have not booked - best to turn up later after lunch peak hour. Had wine tasting $10 & cheese platter - presenter was really good. Buy a couple of bottles & get a discount for tasting. Beaut views - watch the Ibis foraging dropped

Amazing winery and great wines. Immediately felt so welcome and Heather and Jason were outstanding hosts. Don't miss this winery when visiting Yarra Valley

View and space was nice. Staff was friendly. Pizzas were very average however for the price. One of the pizzas we ordered was the prosciutto, but received a margarita. When the staff were notified, they kindly apologised, took the pizza away, and brought the same pizza back a minute later with some prosciutto pieces on it?

We have been to their Friday Summer Sessions twice in the last month. The pizza is spot on, the service is so welcoming and the view is to die for. Very family friendly, I highly recommend a visit.

Another best Healesville winerey is Scottish name Boat O'Craigo.

This winery has two magnificent vineyards, one in Healesville and the other in Kangaroo Ground.

One red, the other white run by the second generation Grahams family boutique wine producer.

Recommend their Gewurztraminer, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir being the only red vines.

Great experience. We did the wine tasting and got the prosciutto pizza. Pizza is definitely worth it. Great taste abs great value. Wine was freaking bomb. We started off with the sparkling wine which was yum. Gewurztraminer which was very smooth but stronger after food. Followed by the Sauvignon Blanc which was the opposite. Then the Pinot noir. The Grenache was my favourite. So smooth and absolutely delicious. Last was the Cabernet.
The staff were amazingly friendly and very helpful. Gave us a whole lot of places to go see. The location is beautiful, looking over the orchard and gotta see a mob of kangaroos hopping about. Would recommend for anyone. Only sad thing is we only get to try 5 wines which is fair but would have like to try some more.

Amazing place for wine drinking and a quick bite overlooking a scenic vineyard.
Sit and relax. Great place.
Service was great & wines were really good.
Wished the food menu was slightly bigger or even extend the snacks to include some chips, fruits or even some chocolates.

Used to order wines from here during lockdown & the speed of delivery was commendable. Orde today receive it tomorrow. Incredible logistics!

Fantastic venue. Came here for lunch as part of a small day-tour. Great place to enjoy pizza and charcuterie after a delicious, informative wine tasting. Enjoyed the beautiful aspect over the winery and hills. Gayle was a terrific host.

Pleasant wine tasting, lunch, and views

Six of us booked for a wine tasting and lunch for 1pm Sunday. Our tasting was done seated at a table in the cellar door, before moving outside into the open sided marquee for lunch over looking the vineyards and valley - a very pleasant view over lunch. There's a $5 tasting fee for about 5 wines - very reasonable.

We chose gourmet pizzas for lunch, which were up to standard and not cheap, but very enjoyable.

Wine bottle prices are scaled, with two levels of discount for "members" (includes a regular delivery of wines).

This winery was not very busy when we visited and it is a member of the Yarra Valley Smaller Wineries group, offering a loyalty scheme on purchases (grab a multi winery brochure and get it stamped on purchases, with a future free bottle).
