We all know that nature is a proven tonic for our well-being. When we’re out and about, it’s not just impeccable service and a laid-back atmosphere that we crave - it’s also the great outdoors and fresh air. That’s why we vouch for the @crittendenwines Centre, a place that ticks all our boxes and has once again earned a spot in James Halliday’s Top 100 Wineries.
With its beautifully appointed wine centre, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and serene views of the lake from their shaded patio, Crittenden Wines is the kind of place where time seems to slow down.
So, if you’re mulling over Melbourne Cup Holiday plans and wondering where to unwind, here’s a thought: Tomorrow, find yourself where the wine flows and the atmosphere soothes.
