Your first stop is the Yarra Valley Dairy, where cheese lovers will delight in a variety of fresh cow and goat cheeses made on-site at this historic dairy. Savor each bite and enjoy the option to purchase a glass of wine or a coffee to pair with your tasting.

Next, we head to the renowned Domaine Chandon Australia, where you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy their world-class sparkling wines while soaking in panoramic views. Treat yourself to oysters or a cheese platter from the lounge menu (at your own expense), and celebrate the sparkling moments with a glass in hand.
