At this time we have 14 different wines for tasting. Features of the wines include all but one having won medals ranging from Gold to Bronze, awarded by Grape Wine Judges. Non of the wines are the usual fruit wine sweet and sticky styles. We recognise that most people these days prefer dry wines so that's what we make. We are open from 10am to 4.30pm every day and all you have to do is drive in and enjoy yourself. Our wine consultant is also an occasional grape wine judge and we have to maintain his standards or we lose him. We are both retired - me a Physiotherapist and Trudie a Social Worker and Trudie is the wine maker. Because we are retired we don't have to make vast quantities of wine so we can concentrate on quality. Please join us when you are staying in the Cairns / Port Douglas region for something very special. « less

I tasted some of Shannonvale’s tropical wines while I was holidaying in Port Douglas. They were so great and so unique. I bought a book online at www.dineinportdouglas.com.au called Port Douglas Flavours for only $14.95 which Shannonvale is featured in. They’ve got a 2 page spread talking about their different wines and there are also pages about Port Douglas and... More

Very nice drive to winery, wines are ok, but $5 for a tasting is great. You get to try 10+ different fruit wines.. The wines themselves are quite unique. Along with the Reef and rain forests, I would say the unique fruits if the area are a nust-do atraction.. And the wines are part of that. More

Wine sampling at its best. Nestled in the countryside, this winery can easily be overlooked. In a quaint setting, the wines are served outdoors under a canopy of green. The hostess had a vibrant personality and enthusastically presented each of the 13 wines. The unique blending of various fruits that produced the distinctive flavors each wine possessed was amazing. It... More

We really enjoyed our little detour to Shannonvale Winery. The host was just delightful and very generous with her tasting quantities! She was also extremely passionate about her produce, describing each fruit and the qualities of each wine/port in detail. It was an enlightening experience and we also (very much!) enjoyed the wine. Well worth the trip! More

We love wine and since our trip to Cape Tribulation was all about exotic fruit tasting, we decided to check out the winery. We also asked our B&B hosts about wine tasting and they recommended this place. If you are interested in wine at all, they will give you a tasting of 13 wines! I think it costs $5 if... More

We were on vacation, just driving by and we saw the sign and decided to stop in. My wife and I are from Hawaii and we were amazed at how much this part of Australia looks like Maui or Kaua'i. as we walked in under an arch just covered with big yellow Passion Fruit we got to sit down in... More
