What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors consistently praise Hither & Yon for its beautiful cellar door, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and unique, easy-drinking wines. The welcoming atmosphere, especially with the fireplace, and the dog-friendly policy are significant draws. However, some guests have expressed disappointment with the limited selection of wines available for tasting, suggesting that not all of their best wines are showcased.
"I really enjoyed their wine range. Their rose and white wine are fantastic and they have amazing red wines such as cabernet sauvignon and shiraz, they were lighter than usual but they were so easy to drink. I think their wines are really good for people who are starting to drink red wine. The place looks beautiful and aesthetically pleasing to sit down and drink some wine. I highly recommend this place."

"Had a lovely tasting at Hither & Yon! Some fun grape varieties like Tempranillo & Malbec, and of course the classic Grenache & Shiraz. Cute space and very knowledgeable staff!"

"A very disappointing limited tasting. We travelled from NSW and H&Y were in our top 3 to visit so it was quite the let down experience. They do such a wide range of wines and they absolutely do not have their best on offer. The 3* rating is for the fact that their cellar door is lovely, as are the staff, and they don’t charge for tastings (the only winery/cellar door we encountered in MV offering free tastings). We actually bumped into a couple at another winery who had sat next to us here earlier in the day who said similar things regarding the selection of wines on offer."
