This
was
one
of
the
best
tasting/dining
winery
experiences
that
my
wife
and
I
have
had.
We
had
not
heard
of
Mt
Bera
before,
but
facing
a
long
drive,
we
decided
to
break
it
at
Mt
Bera
based
on
the
excellent
Google
reviews.
We
called
ahead
and
reserved
a
table.
When
we
arrived
we
were
impressed
by
the
garden
setting
and
the
lovely
old
building.
The
staff
welcomed
us
warmly
and
took
us
straight
to
our
table,
providing
us
with
menus
and
water.
I
was
about
to
indicate
that
we
would
do
some
tasting
after
lunch
when
the
server
explained
we
could
taste
wines
during
our
lunch.
We
started
with
a
generous
gourmet
platter
followed
by
sharing
the
delicious
Lebanese
Baharat
spiced
lamb.
We
also
shared
a
lovely
caramelised
peach/almond
cake
for
dessert.
Our
meal
was
spread
over
2.5
hours
during
which
we
tasted
19
of
the
Mt
Bera
wines
-
as
designated
driver
I
had
to
spit
out
all
my
tastings
which
was
disappointing
because
we
tasted
some
very
nice
wines.
We
particularly
liked
the
Dreamcatcher
SB
and
the
Boundless
Horizons
Gruner
Veltliner,
Pinot
Noir
and
Syrah.
We
departed
with
a
mixed
case
of
12
bottles
of
our
preferred
wines.
During
the
whole
experience
we
were
overwhelmed
by
the
top
quality
service
and
friendliness
of
the
staff.
It's
a
pity
that
Mt
Bera
is
so
far
from
our
home
in
Melbourne.
