Riverstone Estate Yarra Valley - Coldstream, Victoria

HP

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Riverstone, and the moment I stepped in I was captivated by the breathtaking views, beautifully designed with a touch of elegance that sets the perfect mood.

The wine selection was nothing less than spectacular. Each glass I tried was rich in flavor, thoughtfully curated, and truly a testament to the passion behind their craft.

But what truly made the experience remarkable was the staff. Warm, welcoming, and incredibly attentive. Their knowledge of the wines and commitment to hospitality truly made me feel at home.

I can't wait to return!

Merci 😊

Had lunch in the clouds today.
Fresh mountain air, stunning views, and food that felt like a treat — but way cheaper than the city.
Now I truly get why the Greeks created Dionysus, the god of wine.
And this wine wasn’t from a bottle shop — it came straight from the heart of the winery.
Pure magic.

I had a Mother’s Day lunch at Riverstone and was so saddened that the change of ownership meant that the pricing skyrocketed and the service / quality deteriorated.
We spent $160 in total which included a miserable cheese board that looked like it had very strict requirements, ie 4 grapes, 3 olives, 1 slice of salami… we had two wine tastings which cost $28 each - normally a wine tasting is redeemable on a bottle of wine or at the very least is $5 for the very small amount of wine provided. It ended up being a very expensive 1.0 standard drink of various wines that were not explained at all as the sommelier was a little too interested in the male standing next to me!!
We waited an hour before we had a drink (ie the terrible wine tasting mentioned above!). Whilst the waiter was very lovely, I think the process was misunderstood - we had a wine tastings and the idea was the food would be on the table afterwards.. well our tiny bit of cheese sat in the sun outside until we were finished the tasting!

It’s such a shame as the views are lovely but we simply will not go back. The old riverstone had beautiful live music that I would have expected on a day like Mother’s Day - there was no background music (even just Spotify!).

Feeling pretty sad that what should have been a lovely Mother’s Day was tarnished with a business that was too concerned with price gouging than experience

A Hidden Gem – Pure Perfection at Riverstone Winery Estate!

From the moment we arrived at Riverstone Winery Estate, we were blown away by the beauty of the surroundings and the warm, welcoming atmosphere. The vineyard itself is absolutely stunning with breathtaking views.

The Chardonnay was crisp and elegant, the Shiraz rich and bold, and the Rose—absolutely divine. You can really taste the passion in every glass.

The staff were incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, taking the time to share the story behind each wine and making the entire experience feel personal and memorable. We also enjoyed a delicious cheese platter that paired beautifully with the wine.

Absolutely stunning views. And that’s where the good part ends.

Upon arrival we were greeted by a waitress who was very adamant on a 90 minute sitting due to an extremely busy Mother’s Day.
We then waited near on 50 minutes for our entrees which only 2 of 4 arrived.
Another 10 minutes later the rest of the entrees arrived. A $40 platter consisted of about 8 pieces of cured meats. Two pieces of unnamed bland cheese. We were still eating our entrees when our mains arrived which is a clear miscommunication between staff and chef.
Mains were okay. All lacking in flavour but the beef fillet was beautiful.
The next issue was another 45 minute wait for desert and coffee. This was sadly abandoned as now what was meant to be a 90 minute sitting had now turned into almost 3 hours.

From our initial venue inspection up until the end of our wedding day the team at Riverstone Estate were truely amazing. Nicola was always keeping in touch with us during the planning process, very responsive and provided a great range of recommended vendors. On our day Amalia and Sheila made sure the whole day ran smoothly and were nothing but exceptional. They helped my nerves with not having to stress about anything!
Our guests raved about the food - and the amount of food their was and how stunning the venue is! They commented on how we had thought about everything for the day - but I have to give credit to the Riverstone team for that. They think of everything and also provide table centrepieces, welcome sign easel, food/drink signs, wishing well if you don’t have any. The views are absolutely breathtaking and we were lucky enough to have our ceremony outside which made for beautiful photos. Highly recommend The Riverstone Estate and so glad we had our wedding here.

Attended a wedding here and the venue is absolutely lovely. Stunning vistas and definitely one of the most impressive spots in the Yarra Valley for me (I’ve been to many a winery wedding). Food wise the servings were incredibly generous to the point where we couldn’t even finish the mains but it’s possibly also because the canapés were so phenomenal that I was hovering by the servers double parking. Would definitely recommend if you were planning on an intimate wedding (it’s a small space)
