Charming
Great for outdoor dining
Great for scenic views

Our menu is inspired by our own family gatherings, sharing food, wine, company, the beauty of our landscape and the bounty of our Estate Grown produce. Dine outdoors on the deck overlooking Lake Moodemere, or indoors in the heritage listed homestead - air conditioned in Summer with wood fires in Winter.

We grow our own lamb, wheat, honey, citrus, seasonal vegetables & herbs. All our Estate produce is sustainably produced with minimal intervention and zero food miles in a reflection of the place it was grown and the people who made it.

Our chefs have a passion for sustainability and creativity. In addition to our estate produce, we source the best of the season's harvest, with a view to minimising food miles, to enhance a vibrant, ever changing menu.

The concept of an evening fireside dinner was terrific. The delicious food paired with some wonderful Lake Moodemere wine was very enjoyable. The gap between entre and main was a little too long, but dessert arrived very timely.

Ordered a grazing platter paid $88. So overpriced for what we got. Very disappointed
Lake Moodemere EstateResponded on May 17, 2024
Thank you for your review. I'm sorry you were disappointed by your grazing plate. The Grazing Plate is actually $52. I hope you have included wine, drinks, bread, or other items within the $88 you mentioned. If you paid $88 for the Grazing Plate without any additional items, please let us know and we'll rectify that for you immediately. We hope you have the opportunity to visit again and have a more pleasing experience.

Lovely winery and grounds. Great outdoor dining area. Service and wine were excellent. I must be honest though. I had the pork belly for main and I was dissapointed. I love pork belly but the way this was presented and cooked was not great. I found it dry and just lacking that real pork belly deliciousness. Everything else was good. Beautiful steamed greens, great steak and good presentation of food. One other slight disappointment my husband had the arancini for entree and there was only one. I had a prawn linguine for entree and it was a very generous portion compared to my husbands entree. Maybe they should look at that entree dish and think about adding one more ball to make the entrees more even. Anyway on the whole a very enjoyable experience.
