  Medhurst is an incredible little cellar door. Passionate about their wines and that translates from the owners and all the staff producing excellent wines, beautiful grounds, with sculptures dotting the landscape. A nice menu from their small kitchen.

  Lovely little spot off the standard valley route. Well cared for and curated property with interesting sculptures and scenery. Nice range of wines from White to light reds. Food is very nice though mainly snacking and light meals. Will visit again

  Our favourite winery to visit. Bedelia gave us the nicest, most genuine welcome. She was so lovely. Talked us through all their wines and about the vineyard. Can't wait to come back and try their food too!

  Beautiful wine and snack food, lovely service and amazing views. We had a great time with the family relaxing and enjoying the outdoor area. Atmosphere is relaxing and clean, they got Yummy cakes and coffee too. Couldn't ask for more :)

  I took my wife here for our anniversary, so I was hoping for something that would impress her. Of course it impressed her, the food is fantastic, the wines that went along with the platters were great and the staff were super friendly and helpful.
  
  It's a really nice place to go and just chill and enjoy the views of the surroundings. The atmosphere is typical of Yarra Valley Amazing, green pastures, lots of nature and the restaurant itself complimented this. We'll definitely head back again, mayne for our next anniversary :D

  Great wine, poor/rude management.
  
  I was so excited to return to Medhurst, as my husband and I had stumbled upon it a couple of years ago, and truly felt it was the most relaxing winery we had been to. We saved it to be our 5th and last winery of the day so that we could sit outside and relax.
  
  Upon our arrival, we shuffled over to the tasting area and ready to get started - there were 9 of us. We went to order a bunch of nibbles, and were told the only thing remaining on the menu was cheese and cake. We ordered 2 cheese platters, and then my mum-in-law asked the lady if we could bring in our picnic baskets as they didn't have much food to offer. The lady said, normally they do not allow it, but as they were closing in an hour and did not have other food options, it would be fine.
  
  While my family started the tasting, I at 7 months pregnant, brought out our 3 picnic baskets and unpacked on the table outside. I went into get a cappuccino, while my mom and dad-in-law, sat at with the table and couldn't wait to join them and relax. As I'm walking out, my dad-in-law was packing up the table.
  
  The waitress & "manager" had asked him to put away the picnic. I put manager in quotes, as when my mum-in-law and I came out and let her know we were told it was okay, she was quite snappy and said, it is not allowed, I am the MANAGER. I suspect she is a very new manager at the way she spoke to us and the way her staff were obviously untrained. She then very condescendingly said to us - we make money off of our food and wines, of course we wouldn't allow food. We then mentioned that we would love to order food, but were told they were out of everything. She very rudely said, yes we've been slammed, it's the end of the day and we've run out of food.
  
  We then brought the cheese platters inside because of the flies outside, and had to actually bus our own table to get a seat.
  
  The last time we were there we bought close to 20 bottles of wine and really enjoyed ourselves. The wine is great, but very poor management. It's great they make money off of their food and wines, but they certainly lost money off of us buying wine, as we had too bad a taste in our mouth to make a big purchase. Would certainly not return or recommend others to check it out - there are likely other hidden gems more worth your money. So much for the holiday spirit
