About Mount Majura Vineyard
Mount Majura Vineyard has been growing grapes on the slopes of Mount Majura since 1988. The 14-hectare site focuses on Spanish and Mediterranean varieties, Tempranillo above all, alongside Riesling, Shiraz, traditional-method sparkling and a house vermouth. The cellar door runs seated tastings rather than a quick pour at the bar. Guests choose a flight, such as a local favourites selection, the winemaker's picks, a single-block Tempranillo comparison or a vermouth line-up, and each one arrives with a small shared plate of cheese and charcuterie. Allow roughly an hour at the table. Tables seat up to 10, and weekend bookings are capped at that number because the room is compact. Larger groups can sometimes be fitted in on weekdays, and the team can set up tastings for private parties and work functions when asked. After tasting, groups can pick up a trail map and walk the vineyard on their own, finishing at the top of the hill with a view across the Majura Valley. Shoes are sprayed at the start to protect the vines. For bigger celebrations, the whole cellar door can be hired from 6pm once it closes to the public. There is no kitchen on site, so hosts bring in the caterer of their choice.

Frequently asked questions
How many people can we bring for a tasting?
Tables seat up to 10 guests, and that is the limit for weekend bookings. Bigger groups can sometimes be seated midweek by prior arrangement, and private after-hours hire suits larger events.
What does a tasting cost and what is included?
Flights range from $20 to $40 for each guest depending on the selection, and every tasting includes a small shared plate of cheese and charcuterie. Allow about an hour at the table.
Can we bring our own food?
Yes. There is no restaurant or cafe on site, so a packed picnic on the grass is fine as long as the wine comes from the cellar door. Shared platters can also be ordered.
Can children and non-drinkers come along?
Children are welcome, and when booking you simply note how many people in the group will not be tasting. Non-alcoholic wine, juice and soda are available, but there is no tea or coffee.
Can the cellar door be booked for a private event?
Yes. The venue can be hired every evening from 6pm after it closes to the public, and smaller events can be held during weekday trading. There is no kitchen, so you arrange your own catering.

If your in ACT, go here. Such a surprise treat in the middle of the city but still tucked away in its own space. Relaxing and good wines. Staff are good and helpful.
