Our subterranean Cellar Door first opened in 2016, and has been designed by Kerstin Thompson Architects to give guests a unique insight into the wines and story of TarraWarra. All the wines are grown and made from our 28-hectare vineyard, which is scattered across the 400-hectare property. A tasting through our range is a journey across the Estate as well as through the seasons, because each wine captures something of the essence of TarraWarra. The curved stone entrance reveals a truly beautiful, dedicated tasting space, which opens onto our working winery. Book a wine tasting on their website.
