Castle Glen is always on my must visit places when we go to Stanthorpe…read more The owner is a very lovely man who not only makes wines, but liquers, whiskeys and now beer! He makes all of the alcohol on site and loves to experiment with different flavours and textures. My partner (the beer Connoisseur) was very curious to try the beers. As he is Britsh and German by heritage, he does know a thing or two about beer! He found the beers a bit hit and miss. He really liked the stout but did not like the pilsner beer. After sampling most of them, he settled on the stout, ginger and wheat beers. I also purchased a choc-mint liquer which I have had in the past and really enjoyed. He has a very large selection of liquers and you will defintely find one that will appeal to you. This is a must-stop place in Stanthorpe - not just to sample some finely made alcohol but just to admire the castle!

The "castle" is surrounded by quiet vineyard and a large neat forecourt. I was surprised at the size of the range- from port to alcoholic ginger beer, rum liqueur to something called sex at sunset- a blend of 9 liqueurs and wine. To be honest, the range wouldn't be as big if not for the different shaped bottles, but the extent of flavours is still amazing. You will find anything there you wish to try, and they even have little 100ml individual bottles behind the counter for purchase if you can't commit to everything!

Food was good but some simple improvements could easily raise the rating (serve hot not cold, and season it!). While the facilities are awesome for a private function, they were too fast in closing the bar (even though the host paid to 9:30pm) and the single toilet restrooms had constant lines. Not ideal for a wedding in that regard. But overall was a great experience, despite these set backs.

I have to say - it is well worth the 20 minute drive in the dark out of Stanthorpe for this! The food - to say the least - was some of the best I have had in a very long time. My starter (selection of antipasto) were all local ingredients from the Ballandeean/Stranthorpe region and was absolutely mind blowing. My partner's starter (bread with balsamic and olive oil) was just as deliecious. Baked on site and the oil and balsamic came from a local producer was just incredible. The balsamic was the nicest I have had ever. My main (pork belly) was melt in your mouth fabulous. My partner had the steak and he said it was the best steak he had had in a restaurant ever. He is even more harder to please than fussy old me! He asked for his steak medium rare and it was cooked to perfection. Both the pork belly and the steak came from local farms. Dessert we shared a chocolate and muscat pudding which was just gorgeous (again all local ingredients). I could have eaten two of them! My partner is not a fan of Queensland wines (he is from South Australia) but decided to try their Shiraz and loved it. He said it was on par with the SA wines. This place is an absolute must if you are in the Stanthorpe / Ballandean region.

Where other vineyards in the region may grow their grapes, it's here they send them to have them magically made into vino. With events ranging from music festivals to live sculpture creating (over several days) this is one place you seriously can't afford to miss. Pick me up a bottle of the sparkling red, will you?
