Join a full-day wine tour in the Yarra Valley and discover some of the best wineries in Victoria, just an hour's drive from Melbourne. Stop at five venues to sample wine, gin, food and chocolate.

8.40am - After pickup from “The Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia”, FLINDERS STREET (This is directly opposite 154 Flinders Street) we depart promptly at 9am for Yarra Valley.

9.30am - A two minute detour through the beautiful Warrandyte on the way to The Yarra Valley.

10am - Make your first stop at Soumah of Yarra Valley for a wine tasting of red and white wines. Learn how the cool climate allows this winery to specialize in styles and varieties typical to northern Italy and southeastern France, such as Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

11am - Sit down at a table at Four Pillars Gin Distillery for a gin paddle. Pick your choice of mixer to help wash down the four samples of gin they give you.
OR
11am - Payten & Jones for a Wine & Vermouth tasting. Or we can buy you one of their many international beers they have offer. This is a 10 second walk from Four Pillars, so we can easily split the group up here depending on your preference.

12.15pm - Lunch at Quarters restaurant at Hubert Estate where you buy your own food and drink. (This gives you more choice on what to have for your lunch). Look around their indigenous art gallery on the floor below the cellar door. If you have your own food, you can eat it somewhere away from Hubert Estate Grounds, or head to the restaurant to buy yourself a beer or a wine.
OR
You can have lunch at Chandon if you would like?
There is no tasting or booking here. It is just a quick stop before lunch to take one of the most picturesque photos of the day.
You can have lunch here if you would like, instead of Hubert Estate, but you will have to contact us to ask us what time you will need to book your table at Chandon. At Hubert Estate we already have tables booked.

2.15pm - Yarra Valley Chocolaterie & Ice Creamery for a fantastic guided tasting of 10 of their delicious chocolates in a private room by a very knowledgeable member of staff. If the chocolates aren't enough, then why not buy yourself one of their famous gelatos to enjoy before heading to our last stop.
OR
2.15pm - Yering Station where you can buy yourself a glass of wine if chocolate isn't your thing. Or we can drop you off at Balgownie Estate earlier where you can buy yourself a drink. Then the rest of the group will arrive at 3pm where we will pay for your wine tasting or another drink for you.

3pm - Balgownie Estate for a guided wine tasting or a glass of wine or tea or coffee on their deck enjoying the incredible view.

3.45pm - We head back to Melbourne to arrive back at Federation Square for 4.45pm-5.15pm.
