On the west side of the Yarra Valley lies Yering Station Winery, part of a destination compound that includes a modern, glamorous restaurant as well as a hotel – it is one of the few places in the area that has everything you might want in just one setting. The wine tasting experience on offer is comprehensive in that it offers selections of wines from three different grades of product, so aficionados of ‘the grape’ can select themselves the kind of tasting they would like – from estate, local and regional grapes. (And yes, there is a helicopter landing area on the grounds, but we reckon getting there in an old Chev is just that little bit better!)
