Vintage 2026.

A full room, a social crowd, and a day that delivered — helped along by some very kind autumn weather.

We opened a few magnums of older Cliff Block Pinot — drinking beautifully — now available to buy at the cellar door. Alongside that, the new Darkfoot blend made its first appearance.

A big effort behind the scenes to bring it all together, and a great group to do it for. The food from was on point

Back open as normal this weekend, Fri - Sun 11–5.

Does Paynesville have the highest jetty to resident ratio in Australia?! 🤔

Waterfront is a serious understatement in this water-loving town. Explore the azure canals by kayak or SUP, take a cruise with H2O Tours & Adventures. If the fish 🎣 aren't biting perhaps dinner at the hatted restaurant, SARDINE Dining was just meant to be. When you've had your fill of boating and fishing, pop over to Raymond Island for a round of koala-spotting 🐨.
