Visit our young but historic estate to discover Australian wines crafted with a French sensibility at our elegant cellar door.
Set amongst our rolling vineyards, we provide a window to a working winery, welcoming hospitality and a variety of options for tasting experiences - either surrounded by ageing wine barrels, in our private tasting room or accompanied with food from our classic French L’Apéro menu
We love to share the spoils of our home in the Yarra Valley and have crafted a collection of new tasting experiences for you to discover what we do, and how.

L'Apéro Dining (Wednesday - Sunday)
Take in the views of the Yarra Valley and our vineyard with outdoor dining on our terrace, or one of our sought-after tables indoors amongst the barrels.
L’Apéro dining is based on the French ritual that combines drinks, food and friends. Our menu features a selection of seasonal French-inspired small plates to share, served à la carte. You’ll find the beloved classics, as well as some interesting additions. Match your grazing plates with your favourite Portet wines — by the glass or by the bottle. Et voila, you have yourself a good time.
10 people maximum per booking. 11.00am – 4.00pm.
Outdoor Dining
Due to the unpredictable nature of the Yarra Valley's weather, there will be occasions when it is simply not possible for us to proceed with serving tables outdoors. Should this be the case we will contact you on the day of your reservation to offer a table inside where possible or an alternative day for you to dine with us.

Nothing will be debited from your card at the time of booking, however we do require 24 hours notice for any changes or cancellations to your booking.
