Brindabella Hills Vineyard

Established in 1986, initially as an experimental plot, Brindabella Hills Vineyard is now recognised for award-winning wines. Achieving 21 vintages, the team recognise that crafting premium wines is no longer an experiment but 100 per cent achievable in their location. Have a bite to eat in the café of a weekend, where you can feast on delicious meals, such as wild three mushroom ravioli with burnt butter and crispy sage. You can thank us later!

Pialligo Estate

Pialligo Estate is located centrally in Canberra and a popular wedding venue. Though, if you have your wedding covered, you can still enjoy the flavoursome cuisine or a cellar door experience. There’s plenty of dining options including the Pialligo Farm Shop Café, Pialligo Fields, Pavilion Dining and Market Grill. Using organic practices Pialligo grows their own produce which also serves the local Canberra region.

Lake George Winery

Located just shy of 30 minutes from Canberra you’ll find Lake George Winery, that was established in 1971. Their wines are award winning, their grapes are handpicked and the winery prides themselves on following sustainable practices and promotes their vegan friendly wine. Home to Westering Restaurant that was relaunched in 2019 with a brand-new menu and style, you can enjoy a bite to eat by the comfort of the stone fireplace or outside overlooking the vineyards.
