The cellar door offers tastings and sales of wine, cheese and olive oil. I recently made the trip primarily to taste the cheeses on offer so I was quite disappointed to find that there was an unexplainable absence of cheese on that particular day. This news was passed on with no apology which made for a bad start to the experience. The oil and wines thankfully were available for tasting so the trip wasn't entirely wasted. I tried reds only and they were all quite pleasant with the Shiraz coming out on top.

The cellar door was decorated in light wood and had a large window overlooking surrounding vineyards and the wine science school. Although the service could have been warmer, it was still enjoyable to hear about the history of the school and the winery with an outlook that gave a true wine-country feel to the experience.The profit from wine sales goes into research and development so a visit to the winery is a great way to support the Australian wine industry. Just make sure yoou phone ahead if you want to try cheese!
