Daylesford Private Wine Tours

About this tour

Spend six hours exploring Daylesford's wine country on a bespoke private tour tailored to your interests. Visit three to five producers, ducking into cellar doors and working vineyards to taste directly from those making the wine. Lunch and all tastings are covered, so you'll move between properties without worrying about additional costs. Tell your guide what appeals—whether that's meeting winemakers, learning production methods, or simply finding your next favourite drop—and they'll chart the route accordingly.

What to expect

You'll be picked up and driven between Daylesford's producers, stopping at three to five venues depending on your preference. At each cellar door or vineyard gate, you'll taste current releases and older vintages, often chatting directly with the people who made them. Lunch happens midway through—typically at one of the properties or a local spot nearby. The pace is relaxed; there's no rushing between stops. You control the experience: keen on organic practices? Ask to visit a biodynamic vineyard. Prefer Pinot? Head to producers focused on that. The guide adapts as you go.

Good to know

Minimum age is 18. Public transport options exist if you'd rather not drive. Wear comfortable shoes for walking between vineyard sections. Six hours is generous enough to taste thoughtfully without feeling hurried.
