We went with another couple on a sunny Sunday and so sat outside overlooking a vineyard. There's acosy restaurant with a fireplace and views so nothing stopping us from returning in cool weather! Lovely food, amicable hosts, quality wines. Why wouldn't we return ..

We visited today after purchasing a Groupon voucher.
The 2 people that took care of us through wine tasting an our meals were lovely. I assume the owners? They both made us feel very welcome.
It was lovely to sit outside and take in the spectacular views.
We enjoyed our wines so much so that we came home with a bottle to enjoy for a special occasion.
The food was delicious, we shared the chilli cheese fchips and 'the don' pizza. While the Satay sauce wasn't what I was expecting it was still delicious. Disappointed we had no room for dessert!
Great spot to take an arvo to chill out on a weekend. We will certainly be back.

Delightful. We had no idea what Talunga Estate was going to be like. We were off to visit the National Motor Museum in Birdwood and thought we'd like to find somewhere nice for lunch afterwards. We figured a local winery might be a good option so did a quick web search. Talunga came up and the menu looked good. As we arrived at Talunga, Donna opened the door to greet us and took us through to enjoy some wine tasting while we waited for our lunch to be prepared. The sparkling Blanc de Blanc is particularly good and we also enjoyed the Semillon/Chardonnay and the Sangiovese Rose. We hadn't planned to purchase any wine but knew we needed some these for the cellar :) For lunch we had a large Antipasto Platter - it included local meats, cheeses, sundried tomatoes and Milano olives. The olives were amazing!!! They were so big I was cutting slices from them with my knife and fork. Donna looked after us and other guests brilliantly. We visited on a week day and didn't need to book but they were pretty much fully booked across the weekend so if you're planning a visit, it may be worth making a booking. We thoroughly recommend Talunga Estate.

Stopped here for lunch. Was a pleasant setting, lovely fire inside. Friendly helpful staff. Not a huge meal menu, but adequate for a casual lunch. Mainly pizza, cheese type platters, with a choice of desserts coffee etc. Good wine tasting, good wines, and a good afternoon.

Donna the owner was very friendly, chatty and made you feel comfortable and relaxed.
We tasted all their wines and with our sweet tooth we had a glass of moscatino each.
Coupon was for $26.00 for 2 people we shared 2 large spring rolls which we really tasty (Donna made these). We shared a nine inch pizza (lots of choices for toppings). We both said we could have another one of these as this was yummy
We ended up paying an extra $10.00 and sharing an apple and berry crumble with ice cream (Donna made this) delicious. The wood fire created a nice ambience and warmth.
Great day with a picturesque trip as it is in the hills.
