If the restaurant isn't open, which it isn't a few days a week, they still do cheese platters, where you select two cheeses from a pretty good range, and you get a condiment and crackers and olives, gluten free if necessary. They have a variety of local food products for sale in the tasting room. Friendly staff and owner. The wines seemed to be white-heavy, as I've noticed other wineries along the coast are, too. There's plenty of parking. The turnoff from the highway is a bit harrowing, as cars don't seem to care that your turn signal is on. The bathrooms are outside the restaurant, on the far side from the tasting room.

I came here for a glass of wine after having a catch up dinner with my friend and her wife at…read moreKensington Street Social down the road. Well, I thought I was going to have a glass but I ended up getting a tasting flight because it was so tempting. They offer wine by the glass, bottle, flight or you can do a tasting at the bar. It was a brilliant experience. The staff were really nice - pleasant, knowledgeable on product offerings and really relaxed. I got the 'come to the dark side' flight, which was all reds. I asked her to pour me a little less because I was driving and it comes out around 2 glasses in total. I asked her to pour me half of each and pour a full one of 'the best one.' After a long deliberation (she told me) she poured the shiraz as the full glass. I had always thought I didn't like shiraz. Well I was wrong - now I do! I will always remember that this was the place that taught me. My friend ordered a different flight that had whites and reds, and also a cheese pairing for the flight - they match each cheese to a wine. I tried all of hers and all her cheeses. Really liked the majority even though bubbles and certain types of white aren't as much my jam. Really great place and good value for money. A nice, classy experience without being intimidating or pretentious. I'd love to come back here again - and next time I'd make sure I wasn't driving. IT'S ON!!

The beef dishes were tender and tasty. Nothing extraordinary or innovative on the menu. Just a typical mod Aussie fine dining. My favorite part of the meal, dessert, was ok. Nothing wow! Didn't find many appealing dessert choices. The service was good and if you go during a public holiday, there is a hefty surcharge.

This is definitely a place that I recommend swinging by if you are in the area and wine tasting…read more As we walked up through the entrance area, we were greeting with a fantastic view of the cellar and restaurant area. And although we didn't get a chance to partake in their food in the dining room --- we did visit the cellar and had some fantastic wines. The atmosphere along with the friendly/knowledge staff made this one of the best wineries we visited in the area. I realize that everyone has a different palette --- but the stand out wine for me was their slightly carbonated Syrah. It was not only fantastic, but was the most unique wine I tried. I enjoyed it so much that I purchased a bottle to return with back to the states.

The winery itself is lovely and the music in the courtyard and general atmosphere was inviting. The…read morething is, we came here to taste and, very likely, buy wine and that's where it went wrong. The tasting room didn't really seem to have anywhere to taste wine, the counter was being used as a bar so there was a queue of people buying what seemed like mostly bottles of Carlton Draft (sheesh, at least sell only decent beers) and odd glass of wine. We stood around for 10 minutes, I guess expecting that we were missing something but the tasting room cum bar continued. We left having tasted nor seen anyone tasting a single glass of wine. I appreciate the entrepreneurialism in creating somewhere that people want to come and hang out but it seems that this has taken over from what I believe should be your core activity. Wine tasting. As a couple who visited several wineries in the area and who always find ourselves purchasing several cases of wine to take with us, Joadja was so intent on creating a bar and selling beer that they left money on the table.

Fantastic lunch at a charming winery overlooking Lake George…read more I can't even begin to express how excited I was to move to a city with so many wineries and vineyards close by! It's been something I've wanted as a local feature since visiting family in the Finger Lakes of New York State a few years ago. And Lerida didn't disappoint! We spent a chilly spring day enjoying a charcuterie plate and couple of glasses of wine, it was our first family meal out in almost two years! (Not that we haven't eaten out, just doing a lot of takeaways to keep the COVID out!) To set expectations, if you're like me, a certain vision comes to mind when you think of an "estate." French Chateau-like, to be exact, especially if like me your wine education largely lies in the "old world" class of wines. You approach the estate from a sharp turn-off on Federal Highway, and drive up a narrow-ish dirt track and approach a humble-looking building that at first can't possibly be a tasting room. A short stroll through the vineyard takes you to the tasting room and restaurant, which, once inside, is actually quite welcoming. A bit industrial, with a heavy concrete aesthetic, but balanced by the large windows that overlook the vines outside. There's also an exceptionally charming barrel room with tables set amongst stacks of promising wine barrels. There's also a coffee bar and a separate tasting bar. They managed to comfortably accommodate a lot of features into what is otherwise a fairly small space. The lackluster bathroom, however, reminds you that you are actually just at a farm. They offer a small but well-curated food menu, of course with glasses or bottles on-offer to accompany. You can also do a separate tasting flight of, if I recall, 8 or so wines for $10 total. Nice deal! The one drawback is they don't serve the tasting flight with the food. Probably so the food doesn't negatively affect the taste of the wines, which is understandable. Seeking lunch and traveling with our young child, we skipped the tasting this time, and instead each enjoyed a delicious glass of Shiraz, for which Lerida is award-winning. It paired very nicely with a charcuterie plate that was heavy on the umami flavors with cured meats and lots of truffle influence! My son enjoyed his first-ever hot chocolate and was very, very pleased. Not their fault of course, but for awareness, flies were a bit troublesome even on a cool and cloudy spring day. Probably much worse when warm and sunny, so be warned! But do stop in here and enjoy!
