Book NowAbout Many Hands Winery
Escape the sterile Yarra Valley wine factories for relaxed, unhurried al fresco dining and scratch-made Italian cooking in Coldstream. Table turnover clocks stop at the door. Groups settle into the covered terrace for afternoon feasts of antipasto platters, wood-fired pizzas, and pumpkin ricotta gnocchi. Owner Tony works the floor pouring estate Pinot Noir, while kitchen platters keep coming—shared garlic prawns, generous bowls of seafood marinara linguine, and lemon-garlic marinated olives bathed in bright citrus oil.

- Home-Style Italian Kitchen: Scratch-made pumpkin ricotta gnocchi, seafood marinara linguine, and crisp wood-fired pizzas.
