Kyneton Trail

Each of the wineries listed offer a variety of food options to accompany your wine tasting. Graze to your heart’s content.

Start your day at Kyneton Ridge Winery, a welcoming hilltop haven offering views, wildlife, and handcrafted wines. Enjoy tastings of Pinot Noir, Shiraz, and Cabernet Sauvignon by the wood fire, paired with a café-style breakfast or brunch as kangaroos graze between the vines.

Next, travel through the undulating countryside to Granite Hills, one of the region’s most celebrated vineyards. Sample their award-winning Riesling and Shiraz while enjoying estate-grown delicacies or local cheeses that complement every pour.

Continue on to Hunter-Gatherer Winery in Pipers Creek, a charming family-run estate dedicated to small-batch winemaking. Joining them for Budburst are North Wines, adding depth to the tasting lineup. Relax with a glass of Sangiovese, Sparkling Shiraz, or Pinot Noir while enjoying wood-fired pizzas from a local food truck in a friendly, rustic atmosphere.

Your next stop is Paramoor, a picturesque winery known for its sustainable, minimal-intervention approach. Over Budburst weekend, Lord Malmsbury Vineyard and Passing Clouds join the Paramoor family, creating a powerhouse lineup of green viticulture and handcrafted wines. Enjoy a leisurely tasting in the rustic barn or outside under the trees with a wood-fired pizza in hand.

End your day with dinner at The Albion Hotel in Kyneton or the historic Kyneton Hotel, both offering regional dishes and curated local wine lists that showcase the very best of the Macedon Ranges.
