Beschreibung
We have a winery and vineyard outside Mansfield around 3 hours north east of Melbourne in Victoria. Mansfield is at the base of Mt Buller, Victoria's premier ski resort, and is also next to Lake Eildon.
Our winery and vineyard was established by my parents in the late 1960's and the wines are now sold around Australia and exported.
We grow our grapes biodynamically and use no pesticides/herbicides.
We have a cellar door and cafe for tasting and sales that is open seven days a week.
A current Drivers license is essential.

Vom Host für Workawayer (Amy & Roger)

Amy, Roger and Cort stayed with us for a couple of months and they will always be welcomed back with open arms!
We thoroughly enjoyed having them and had barely begun utilising their many skills before they left on the next part of their trip. Quick learners, good company, they became part of the 'family' within days and we were sad to see them… read more

We stayed and lived here for 2 months. In that time we felt like we became family and had a time that we will treasure for a lifetime. We were here in the springtime and it was amazing to see and be a part of the vineyard wake up and come to life. The facilities were great and the team just lovely. You basically live in an instagram picture every… read more

Working on this small family vineyard was such an amazing experience. We did something different every day and although our time here was short we learned so much. David and his team were so amazing to work with and such generous hosts. There is lots of work to be done and so many things to learn about running a vineyard. You can relax after work… read more

We are truly grateful for this experience.… read more

It was a very interesting time... We had different jobs to do... (planting vines, trimming vines, prepared orders, prepared food at the celler...) and of course we could taste a lot of different delicious wines! :wink:
It was a very nice time with David and his team!!! Thank you for this amazing experience...we… read more

We have had the pleasure to stay at the winery for five weeks.
And what a wonderful five weeks we had.

What a delightful experience we had at the winery. We stayed and help the team for a month and never felt like people who are just visiting. We were a part of a team which makes a quality product. The tasks were clearly explained. We got to know each member of the crew and truly had a good time sharing a few dinners together. Every one of the… read more

Had a wonderful two weeks in this gorgeous and most peaceful setting. At night you couldn't hear a pin drop! I found pruning water shoots from the vines very therapeutic. For me, spending time in the vineyard was what I had come for as it gave me time to unwind from a busy year. There is a truck available to go into town and I had the chance… read more

Vom Workawayer (Courtney) für Host

Working at the vineyard/winery was one of the best work experiences I've ever had! Everyone at the winery was so laid back and friendly. Each day was the perfect balance of joking around with everyone and getting work done. Most of the work included pruning water shoots from the vines and tying up the fallen ends. We got to bottle wine for the… read more

This was my first work away experience, and I couldn't not have asked for a better experience, in such a beautiful setting. The vineyard is postcard ready with incredible vistas and such a treat to wake up to. Views of Mt. Buller, Victoria's rolling hills, Australian wildlife, stars, and sunsets. Not only is the vineyard lovely, but everyone at… read more

My three weeks here were WONDERFUL!! I adored meeting the staff and I really appreciated the variety of tasks that I was able to help with while I was there - removing shoots from vines, tying up drip lines, wine making/filtering/bottling, and event help. It has been a few weeks since I was here (my review is not very timely, unfortunately!) but I… read more
