Wallaroo Wines and Estate

A Georgian-style homestead on three hundred acres at Wallaroo, with the Brindabella Mountains on one side and twenty-five acres of Shiraz, Riesling and Cabernet Sauvignon on the other. The vineyard supplies fruit to Clonakilla — which tells you about the site. The house was built in 1995 from reclaimed wood but looks a century older. Inside, Japanese antiques from the owners' years as journalists in Asia sit alongside English china. Four queen bedrooms, three fireplaces, a Japanese-style bathroom with spa bath. Whole-house booking — bring a group, open a bottle of the estate wine, watch the ranges.
