Description
Bunjurgen Estate Vineyard produces award winning easy drinking Shiraz, boutique Chambourcin wines, and popular fortified reds [ports] made solely from grapes grown on the property. The wines all reflect contemporary Queensland styles and compliment modern Australian cuisine. Wine tastings are different, and conducted in a very relaxed and informal manner: in winter, outdoors under a large jacaranda tree around a barrel with an open fire on cold days: in summer, dependant on weather, either outdoors, in the shade or even in the Barrel Room at 15-18 degrees Celsius on the very hot days!
... moreFour picnic areas are provided and visitors are welcome to bring their own food and enjoy the facilities, views and peace. There is a walking track through the vineyard and the range of natural trees and dams on the 24 hectare property are home to a wide variety of birds: occasionally kangaroos graze on the property. The property has superb views of the Dividing Range, Mount French and six other prominent landmarks.
The vineyard has established a strong reputation for hospitality, quality, and generosity of spirit and is a very pleasant spot to linger. The team anticipates your visit and look forward to meeting you.

Children:
As the vineyard and the remaining area of the property is a working farm, children require parental/adult supervision at all times as tractors, and equipment may be operating.

The carpark is connected by road access right to the Cellar Door area to facilitate disabled access. A unisex disabled toilet is available. Picnic areas have vehicle access to the table sites. Disabled access is available into the vineyard proper to view fruit, vines and viticulture practices.
Pets Allowed:
Yes. The vineyard has two Alaskan Malamutes as the vineyard dogs, therefore, any visiting pet dogs must be on leads and well restrained, to avoid any clashes with two dogs that are very large and intensely loyal to their owner. Please do not bring cats, guinea pigs or pet birds onto the property.
