Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Cellar door host was very accommodating and friendly, nice wine and cute cellar door. Would be fabulous in spring as it looked a little unkept on the drive in…

Visited with partner for a tasting after visiting a couple of other wineries in the area. We are locals and have never been before. Had a lovely experience, the girl serving us was very knowledgeable about the wine and provided lovely friendly service. The wines were good, we purchased a few. Would return with friends, as the view is beautiful being surrounded by vines and off of a small dirt road. Lovely place to spend an afternoon.

Never been to this place and was very keen to check it out. Great experience from start to finish. Great views with 360d vines on a lush lawn. I went in a group of 4, I had the premium red tasting and all the wines were fantastic. Shout out to Maddy who really looked after us and went above and beyond ensuring we were home safe

Beautiful spot, a cool, funky cellar door and beautiful views across the Valley.
The wines are reasonable and not badly priced, we were a little underwhelmed with the service to be honest. The girl working didn't really engage with us, didn't seem to be interested in talking in more detail about the wine or having a more personalised approach and given we were the only ones at the cellar door, this is definitely something which could be improved.

The cutest little cellar door with the most unique design. Made up of shipping containers with luscious green grass and a deck. Will definitely visit again maybe in the summer months

We booked the $15 guided flight of 6 quality wines, refundable on purchase. Three different flights are offered. Generous serves and friendly service. Nice setting - newish winery designed from shipping containers. They also do free tastings served outside. Overall we enjoyed the experience.

Visiting Dowie Doole was a fabulous experience the wines were delish and our purchase that day was very much enjoyed, since then with COVID19 we ordered their home tasting pack which we received very quickly and was absolutely value for money and a great experience. Can't wait to get bac there.
