Wineries

 

The Fergusson vineyard was originally planted by the Fergusson family in 1968.  The first commercial vintage was processed in 1973 and subsequent expansion saw the addition of the restaurant in 1975 and the wine sales facility in 1978.

 

The vineyard is planted to classic French grape varieties including Chardonnay for the white wines and Pinot Noir, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon varieties for the reds. 

 

Over the past thirty years it has developed an international reputation as a maker of fine wines and provider of a genuinely Australian tourism experience.

 

The cellar door at Fergusson’s showcases the wines under the Fergusson label.  All of our wines are available for tastings and the Australiana shop enables customers an opportunity to purchase the uniquely Australian products.

 

Food

 

The main restaurant with its cathedral ceilings soaring high over the hand sawn refectory furniture and large open fireplace with it’s antique turning spit creates an unmistakable warm Australian ambience.

 

Catering for international and Australian tourist groups, large parties and weddings, the menu reflects Executive Chef Louise Fergusson’s Culinary Olympic Gold Medallist standards and love of regional produce.  Louise trained in cooking at William Angliss College in Melbourne and represented Australia in the 1980 Culinary Olympics for which she won a gold medal.  In 1982 she was awarded a Victorian Foundation scholarship and was away for two years working at some of the top provincial resorts and restaurants in England, France and Germany.  These included the Ritz (London), Gidleigh Park (Devon), Pierre Orsi (Lyon), Le Canard (Hamburg) and The Aubergine (Munich). 

 

The restaurant is capable of seating up to 180 people, with a small 20 seat private dining room “Lou Lou’s” also available for that small intimate group.

 

Dine alfresco style at our outdoor decking located just outside of our cellar door.

 

Looking for something different, enrol in a Master Cooking Class.  Learn the techniques and then enjoy the meal with matching wines.

 

Our restaurant is open 365 days per year for breakfast and lunch and on Friday and Saturday evenings for dinner.  For group bookings of 10 and more people we will open any night of the week for dinner.

 

 

Accommodation

 

Enjoy a weekend away and explore all that the Yarra Valley has to offer.  Bring the family along and stay in our Homestead with three queen bedrooms with a historic Melbourne Tram attached with one double and two singles, suitable for up to 10 people. 

 

Wander up to the cellar door and sample some wines, enjoy a hearty meal in our restaurant. 

 

Prices available upon application.

 

Conferences

 

With a restaurant with a capacity of holding up to 180 people we can cater to most conference requirements.  Lou Lou’s Private Dining Room is also available for small groups of up to 20 people.

 

Try something a little different, hold your conference in our lovely chapel on site.  Can seat aproximately 60 people.
