"Had a fantastic time here and this small family run vineyard. Amy looked after me and was very knowledgeable about the wines. All the wines I tasted were amazing. A must visit when you're in the area"
Hayley Stanton
"We popped in for a wine tasting on a cold sunny winters day and had an amazing time. We sat by the cosy fire and had a lovely lady tell us about the wines, she really looked after us and made the experience even more special as we were celebrating our friends 30th birthday. We especially loved the pinot Gris, rose, and Sauv B!"
Jennifer Rynne
"We were specifically looking for a small, family vineyard to spend an hour and Nautilus came highly recommended. We were not disappointed.
Welcoming hostess, tasty wine and a yummy cheese platter and a cozy room. And extremely reasonably priced. Would highly recommend!"
