Service with a good 'ol country smile!…read more Sarah and the team at Avon Ridge were only too keen to help with a recent family function we held there. They were quick to respond to email, answered all my silly questions and pitched in advice and suggestions at all the right moments. We had a cocktail style party for a little over 40 people. The food was absolutely delicious and there was plenty to eat - always a risk with this style of function I think. The wine and ciders produced by the winery are spot on. We plan to go back and: eat at the restaurant, go during the day, go during summer......

Loved the wine flight option, tasting 5 wines at your own pace and at a very reasonable price. The sparkling red was beautiful and served chilled, so not poured initially; brought to the table when you are ready to drink it!! Great cheese platter option too, using several local products. Good coffee and a sweet treat even comes with it!! Will definitely return.

Helped out by local winemakers like Marcus Setchell, Dick has been meticulous in his approach to improving the wines. The 2017 Orchid Label Chardonnay won Best White Wine of 2018 at the Gippsland Wine show, the cabernet, shiraz and riesling have all done well in various shows. Want a chat about wine? The Gurdies is the place to go! Well worth a visit.

Your taste buds will thank you. The wine here is pretty good, the star of the show being the 'Circa' Pinot noir. It was good to spend a bit of time here although we did feel a little crammed in. Avoid at peak times.

There aren't other wineries around. The host seemed to be the owner and was very friendly. I got in too late for prepared food but they do platters all day and I had a local cheese platter. It was cheddar and pepper cheddar, none very sharp but they were fine, and came with nice preserves, apple slices, and crackers. I asked for recommendations for my tasting. A bit to my surprise the wine was actually all quite good. Nice Riesling, nice Gewürztraminer, the Sauvignon blank smelled just like passion fruit. There's only one red available now, a cab sauv that I didn't love, but it definitely wasn't bad. They had a nice fortified red, too, and j didn't try the moscato but someone else came in and tried it and bought two bottles immediately, so I assume it was decent. There are nice wooded areas around it and you can walk down to a lake to wait off your tasting.

The building itself is clean, modern and has plenty of glass to take advantage of the natural light and wonderful scenery. The food here is freshly prepared, and our table of 4 generally enjoyed the meal. My chicken scaloppini was nice, but a bit too heavy and cheesy. Another had the beef cheek which was very tasty and tender. On the light menu (which has huge portions, just to warn you!), another friend enjoyed the meatballs, but the other friend thought his lamb fry was overdone a bit. My only real complaint was that the waitress got a bit defensive when simply asked by our friends if they could get their dessert, after we waited a very long time. The restaurant got a bit busy, but nobody was short with her, so there was no need to get so catty. Incidentally, the wines there are quite nice - check out the chardonnay and the cab sauv, although the shiraz was not too bad either! Definitely worth a visit, and consider booking as it got very full on a Sunday afternoon.
