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.

Had a lovely weekend at the cottage whilst hiking in nearby National parks.
Beautiful clean and cosy cottage with so much birdlife.
So quiet and peaceful, felt so private and had the best nights sleep.
Comfy beds, hot shower and stocked kitchen.
Loved the views over the dam, a perfect place for a morning coffee or afternoon wine.
Koda the resident pup was a delight and owners lovely.
Enjoyed wine tasting with Michelle and then a walk to flat rock at the rear of the property.
Will stay again!

A very engaging and interesting presentation of some excellent wines. Loved the detailed explanation of the very dedicated sustainability style of production. This was the first stop on our tour so 10am wine is usually not the best but these were all good wines.

The Best experience we had at a Winery on this trip to Ballandean. Because it was limited numbers our host took plenty of time telling us about themselves and how they ended up setting up the Twisted Gum Estate. Very informative, really nice wines and would go back again.

This is a hidden gem in Queensland. I couldn’t make my mind up between the Shiraz 2015, the award winning Shiraz 2014 and the Cabernet Sauvignon 2016, so I had to buy them all. Highly recommended 🍷

Twisted Gum is a fabulous little family winery with superb wines (hubby raved about the Shiraz 2014 and the Shiraz/Cab Sav 2014). The pink moscato was delish for me. I loved the dry grown concept, the passion & sharing of the owners, the lovely art work inside, and a doggy who warmly greets you!! There is accommodation here as well, and great events throughout the year.

Hi Guys
Thanks for the kind review.
Hubby is right about the 2014 reds - they are getting better and better as time goes on. :)
Hope you enjoy the wines and drop in and see us again on your next visit to Granite Belt Wine Country!
