Punt Road Winery – Cellar Door

In 1860, a pioneering vigneron named Hubert de Castella had a vision. He dreamt of a vineyard flourishing in the Yarra Valley. He took vine cuttings from the Airlie Bank vineyard, once located along Melbourne’s bustling Punt Road. He planted those cuttings on the land that now holds Punt Road Winery. Today, the Punt Road Winery sits on a stunning 58-hectare vineyard in Coldstream. The Napoleone family, now in its third and fourth generations, continues de Castella’s legacy. They own and farm this historic estate. Punt Road Winery welcomes visitors to its cellar door, nestled in the heart of the Yarra Valley. Here, you can enjoy a seated tasting. The knowledgeable hosts guide you through their wine selection. It offers an intimate experience, showcasing the best of the estate. After your tasting, explore the Picnic Pantry.
