About Re’em Yarra Valley at Helen & Joey Estate - Restaurant, Hotel, Best Winery, Cellar Door

Re’em at Helen & Joey Estate trades standard cellar door conventions for boutique vineyard lodging and an inventive spin on yum cha. Set amid Gruyere’s rolling vines, this retreat pairs calm vistas with a kitchen that weaves Chinese culinary heritage straight into modern Australian dining. Guests often single out the small bites and delicate dumplings—served with panoramic views of the lotus pond and grazing kangaroos—before moving through structured tastings of estate Chardonnay and Shiraz. Sprawling guest suites come appointed with deep soaking tubs and wide private balconies, letting afternoons drift into dusk over a glass of cool-climate red.

  • Inventive Yum Cha: A modern Australian dining experience weaving Chinese culinary heritage and delicate dim sum small bites with estate vintages.
  • Boutique Vineyard Stays: Spacious, balcony-clad rooms featuring deep soaking tubs and panoramic views across the vines and lotus pond.
  • Estate Wine Tastings: Focused tastings of estate-grown Chardonnay and Shiraz guided by engaging cellar door hosts.

Signature dishes celebrated across guest visits to Re’em Yarra Valley

  • Slow-cooked Wagyu

    The main was wagyu slow-cooked for 48 hours—so tender it melted instantly—paired with the estate’s Shiraz, which was spot-on.

    Ivan

  • Chilli Crab

    Food was overall very good (the chilli crab dish was outstanding), however I would have enjoyed a bit more standard food for breakfast.

    Adam Bramley

  • Ribs

    The food was amazing — the ribs was a standout.

    Brianna Meehan

  • Dumplings

    The restaurant was nice food all really good for our evening meal and breakfast was also nice. Only thing we would have liked was more choice as my partner does not eat eggs and everybody apart from dumplings came with eggs for breakfast.
