Visitors can enjoy complimentary wine tastings seven days a week. Live music is held at the cellar door every weekend. Check the latest tasting details and weekend program before your visit. Another option is the wine-tasting masterclass with Mike Hayes, after which he invites guests to join him for an informal drink at the bar. Check the latest booking details for this experience.
