TarraWarra Estate is a renowned winery in the Yarra Valley, known for its dedication to cool-climate winemaking and a commitment to sustainability. Established across a 400-hectare property, the estate’s 26 hectares of vineyard produce exceptional Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, along with selected Italian varieties. Every wine is estate-grown and made, ensuring a strong connection between the vineyard and each bottle.
The estate’s subterranean Cellar Door, designed by Kerstin Thompson Architects, provides an immersive experience, with tastings offering insights into the estate’s history, terroir, and winemaking approach. Visitors can explore a selection of current releases and back vintages, many of which are available exclusively through the estate.
Set into the landscape, TarraWarra Estate’s Cellar Door offers a relaxed yet refined tasting experience. Guests are invited to sample wines while overlooking the picturesque vineyards, either inside the architecturally designed space or outdoors under the native peppercorn trees. Tastings are available at the bar or as part of a guided vineyard tour, where visitors can explore the estate’s blocks and finish with a curated tasting in the barrel hall.
For those seeking a more indulgent experience, the estate’s restaurant offers seasonal menus designed to complement the wines. Head Chef Maxwell Parlas draws from the kitchen garden and local suppliers to create dishes that highlight the synergy between food and wine. A curated selection of cheese and charcuterie boards is also available for a more casual pairing experience.
