Are you craving the ultimate escape down south, but don’t want to break the bank? Perhaps a girl’s or couples’ trip, where you can indulge on wine, cheese and chocolate - with someone else as the designated driver? Harvest Tours is here to help! We offer an affordable Half Day Wine & Food Tour, which gives you the opportunity to taste local produce and premium wines from all around the Margaret River region.
Our half day Margaret River tours are the ideal snapshot of the region for those of you who don’t have much time, but still want to experience the area. Also, unlike most wine tours, we focus on the most delectable local foods that are on offer in the region.
Our first stop is Brown Hill Estate - a family owned and operated vineyard, with a passionate team that utilises traditional wine-making methods such as hand picking and sorting the fruit. They specialise in using small, intensely flavoured grapes, which create deeper, richer wines. During our visit, you will taste samples from each of their premium wine ranges, and as the cellar door is located within the vineyards, you can observe the wine-making processes happening outside as well. We also have the opportunity to tour the barrel room and learn more about the history of the winery from their trusted experts.
Boutique, expertly made by Peacetree’ s original French vintner Severine Maddux, a winemaker hailing from the old world and a “Young Gun Award" winning winemaker Livia Maiorana. From harvest to bottle, the wine is quality controlled with artisan flare and natural wine-making techniques.
Woody Nook Wines is the third vineyard on our trip, and also the spot where we will be stopping for lunch. They are a genuine boutique winery, with a rich history dating back to 1982 when they planted the first vines. The cellar door is idyllically located, with peaceful jarrah and karri forest as a backdrop - the perfect place to sip wines and enjoy the serenity. During our visit, we will taste a variety of their wines, including their signature crisp, fruity whites and rich, structured reds. After the wine tasting, we will head to The Nookery Cafe, where you can have a full glass of wine and gorge on a range of local produce with their sharing plate - this offers gourmet cheeses, homemade hummus, cold cuts, seafood and fruits.
Your day begins with pick up at the Margaret River Visitors Centre at 11:45am. Make sure you are all ready to go at this time, because you won’t want to lose a second of this day!
Brown Hill Estate is your next wine tasting -here, you can take your time tasting a variety of their wines and then enjoy a tour of the barrel room.
Small boutique wine producer based in the heart of the region (Cowaramup) sourcing the finest fruit to make distinctive wines, set within a maritime environment, specializing in small release, delicately crafted wines.
For lunch, we will be at the stunning Woody Nook Wines, where you will enjoy some wine tastings first, and then have the opportunity to sit back with a full glass of wine and a generously sized sharing plate.
To ensure you have enough energy for the last place, we will make a quick stop at the Margaret River Chocolate Factory so you can indulge in some fine chocolates.
Our last stop will be at the Beer Farm. This is an opportunity to chill out and cleanse your palate with a nice ale while you look out over the bush and a tranquil dam.
