We have been buying and drinking the Rose for years now. It is one of he best we had had. My wife and I flew to Yarra Valley for their 40th Anniversary at the beautiful winery on Saturday. The master class they put on was heaps of fun with a lot of very interesting information learnt. I must admit I was schooled with only picking 2 from 6 from each section!!!! Lunch was superb and the wine excellent to match. Cheese platter was a sight to behold also. A 5 litre of 1995 Taltarni Cab Sav served to all the guests was a very nice touch and not to mention a very good drop!! Dominique and Ben were both extremely polite and made a point of greeting and having a chat to all that attended. Both my wife and I were very impressed with the day, wine and food and of course we will be going back.
We've always loved Dominique Portet, way before kids. I remembered hubby and I on several occassions, ordered a beautiful platter, couple of bottles of wine, sat out on the lawn and played backgammon, sometimes till after it's shut! Love it! Low key, romantic venue, oh so french provincial & beautiful beautiful wines!

The French inspired menu is fresh, delicious and always fantastic quality. I have eaten lunch here several times recently, and am always impressed.
I recently had my 50th birthday at this amazing winery and every part of the event was first class. Food amazing - recommend the buffet, great wine service, staff friendly and it would be remiss not to mention the incredible wine. Jerome who organised the event with me was extremely professional and nothing was an issue. Do yourself a favour and have your next function there. Well done everyone and thanks for making my day so great. I am sure we will see you soon.
Loved the place, so laid back and beautiful scenery, the wine was also good, and loved Bomba Alaska :) had a wonderful day...
Had a wonderful afternoon sharing a prosciutto, fruit and cheese platter, with some lovely wines. Great service, nice ambience and would definitely recommend.
Amazing place, amazing staff, amazing wines! Can’t fault it!
Wonderful Vineyard and Venue! Had an amazing afternoon tasting their beautiful wines and devine food. Highly recommend visiting
Excellent relaxing winery to visit. The wines are wonderful and the menu is full of food cooked in an exquisite manner. Lovely place for a special occasion
Amazing selection of wines and friendly staff who are extreamly helpful. Well worth a visit 🍾
Beautiful location. Wines were lovely. Had a knowledgeable and extremely pleasant staff member named Jason complete our tastings. Highly recommend this winery and a bonus if Jason looks after you. Will be back.
We stopped for wine tasting, which was excellent, and decided to stay for lunch. The food was Devine with so many gluten free dishes to chose from. Definitely will visit again next visit!
If I could give a score beyond 5 I would! Twice I've been to Dominique and twice the service has been nothing but amazing. Complemented with great wine, great venue as well as great company, makes a perfect winery! Special mention to your manager, Jerome for making our partners organising our birthdays seamless! Truly the best winery at the Yarra Valley...thank you!������
We had a beautiful private lunch at Dominique Portet. The staff, wine and food were amazing! Perfect day!!! 😊
Absolutely Amazing. The service, the food, the wines, the staff and the ambience were all first class. I went with a group of girls. Now i cant wait to share my experience with friends. Thankyou.
a perfect kitchen ( try the Porkbelly), the Chardonnay is outstanding. sitting outside with your party on a sunny day, is a perfect spot. thanks for the experience!
What an amazing place for a wedding 😍❤️ the ambience is simply beautiful, and not to mention the food too 😍 I will definitely be back here soon.
We had a lovely lunch for my parents wedding anniversary. Jason took great care of us, food was delicious and very reasonably priced.
This was my favourite winery and restaurant in the Yarra Valley. The food is simply to die for; simple, tasty and well done. I would recommend the Octopus salad and the steak frites. Beautiful views overlooking the mountain and a gorgeous French provincial style reataurant. I will be coming back for sure.
Beautiful little place with great and friendly service, delicious food and wines. We’ve tried steak which was cooked very well and delicious chips with rosemary salt.
Market fish was kingfish with corn and peas which was so well balanced! So simple yet finger licking.
Staff was very attentive yet not pushing you for something more expensive or unnecessary.
Delicious wines, good food, and lovely surroundings. Has to be one of our favourite wineries in the Yarra Valley. We enjoyed the steak frites and a lovely cab sav for lunch today. Cheers!🍷 🍷 🍷 🍷
Ok so we were looking for a place to sit back and relax, with great outdoor setting and views, somewhere peaceful. We found it! We ordered the charcuterie board, was good but nothing like the pictures here on zomato, alot less items on the board for the price you pay. Then we got the raw trout with mousse and salmon roe it was amazing! Coffee was to perfection, creme caramel dessert was yummy, French fries were abit meh because there was no sauce that came with it. Service was very friendly, and food came out quickly. All in all we recommended this place, and would definitely come back. Bookmarked :)
We had our babies christening lunch at Domenique Portet yesterday and it was amazing. The food was delicious, 5 start service, I honestly cannot fault it. I have been to the winery several times before as I love their wine but first event I have had there and will definitely do it
Eat there on a Saturday, beautiful simple food, great wine (must try Cabernet Sauvignon) Charming place ,they allowed my dog.. relaxing atmosphere .
Lovely little winery. Beautiful ambiance and delicious cheese platter. Wines were well priced-had a glass of the Shiraz and a glass of their Cabernet Sauvignon. Would go back.
Excellent surrounds , wine, food and service. you have to try the sav blanc 2017 and merlot. resonably priced for such perfection. This winery has been in operation since 2002. French elegance and heritage is all around. My twins especially loved runnning through the grassy plains and had no probelm trying the duck confit and pork belly which are their signature dishes. If you're just driving through the cheese platter is devine. goat, brie and cheddar accompanied by quince and various dried fruits.The cab sav was smooth and light as far as cab sav's go- we got one to go. highly recomended.
An absolute must-do in the Yarra Valley with the best value charcuterie board I have ever had!! For ~$30 everything (including all their other food) is absolutely amazing and the servings are so generous it's hard to believe they're making a profit on it! On our latest trip we also tried their winter special cassoulet which was hearty and delicious. The wine of course is also beautiful, so do yourself a favour and stop by - you won't regret it!
Travelling through the Yarra Valley we stumbled upon this lovely French/Australian Winery. We were hoping for something meaty for lunch and were excited to see 7 hour cooked Beef Brisket on the menu, as we had been dreaming of Brisket for days. That's normal right?
The winery was very French looking, which we loved and the staff were very warm and welcoming. Loved the extra seating in amongst the wine barrels! It was quite busy but service was spot on.
Our Beef Brisket was accompanied by pea purée, pancetta and celeriac remoulade with a side of fries and aioli. It was delicious. We opted for a glass of their Fontaine Rosé which complimented our meal perfectly.
The only downfall was the coffee. This was disappointing. It was extremely weak and the cappuccino barely had any froth on it.
I was also surprised they didn't offer us any dessert options. I could have been easily convinced to have a creme brûlée but oh well my hips will thank me for it.
