Book NowAbout Trofeo Estate
Set in a 1930s passion fruit cannery, Trofeo Estate delivers estate wines aged in terracotta amphorae alongside relaxed vineyard dining.
Tastings at the cellar door dig into clay-fermented pours—from textured Pinot Gris to estate Pinot Noir—guided by staff who know the harvest and viniculture inside out. Out on the deck and garden, multi-course lunches lean into seasonal paddock-to-plate plates like split king prawns, crisp pork belly, and roasted snapper. Diners often wrap up the afternoon over a slice of chocolate amphora tartlet as the vineyard stretches out below.
- Terracotta Viniculture: Estate wines are fermented and matured in imported terracotta amphorae and pots on-site.
- Historic Cannery Setting: Rustic cellar door and dining set within a repurposed 1930s industrial fruit cannery.
- Vineyard Deck Dining: Seasonal multi-course lunches served on the open-air deck and sheltered garden spaces.
