Toms Cap Vineyard

Graham Morris began the development of the vineyard in 1992 on a 40ha property surrounded by the forests of the Strzelecki Ranges, the Ninety Mile Beach at Woodside, and the Tarra Bulga National Park, one of the four major areas of cool temperature rainforest in Vic. The vineyard is planted to cabernet sauvignon, chardonnay, sauvignon blanc, shiraz and riesling. In 2007 a 100-seat restaurant was opened offering a variety of local and overseas foods, a smaller, separate, restaurant following in '09. Cottage accommodation, too, has been expanded. -JAMES HALLIDAY
