MOORABOOL VALLEY TOUR
Join us on a tour through the Moorabool Valley vineyards where you can school up on local drops at our selection of cellar doors, and try top tipples paired with tasting platters or long, lazy lunches.
The Moorabool Valley represents one of Australia’s finest cool climate wine regions with a fast growing reputation for boutique wineries producing premium hand crafted wines. Nestled between Geelong & Ballarat, the Moorabool Valley’s small, family run vineyards provide rich and intense low yield fruit, perfect for crafting into award winning wines. Family owned and operated wineries dominate the Valley giving visitors the opportunity to meet with the people who tend the vines and produce a wide range of classic and alternative wines
With a history extending back to 1842, Swiss immigrants chose the Moorabool Valley to plant some of Victoria’s earliest vines. Today, a small band of passionate winemakers embrace the challenge of producing superior cool climate wines from the tough limestone and basalt base which forms this region’s unique terroir.
Relax and enjoy a day touring the Moorabool Valley’s top vineyards, with the whole experience taken care of with one of our knowledgeable local hosts and drivers.
Upgrade your experience with a tasting board or gourmet lunch showcasing the regions’ best local produce
This tour is available Thursday to Sunday, or available 7 days for private group bookings.
