Crooked River Wines – Gerringong (5 mins away)
Set against the lush hills of Gerringong, Crooked River Wines is a favourite among locals and visitors alike. Family-owned and proudly local, it’s known for both its wine and boutique beer offerings.

Two Figs Winery – Berry (20 mins away)
Perched high above the Shoalhaven River, Two Figs Winery offers panoramic views and award-winning small-batch wines. Their cellar door is friendly and intimate, with a focus on slow-paced tasting experiences. Bring a picnic or build your own grazing board from their delicious local produce fridge and take in the view.
Don’t miss: Their Chardonnay and bold reds — and if you’re lucky, a meet-and-greet with the winery dog.
The Silos Estate – Berry (15 mins away)
Just down the road from Two Figs, you’ll find Silos Estate — a working vineyard and winery nestled in a restored 1870s dairy farm. This historic spot produces premium wines and also supports rescued alpacas (yes, really). Their wines range from crisp whites to robust reds, and the cellar door staff are more than happy to share tasting notes and stories.
Why go: Wine, heritage, and a chance to say hello to an alpaca or two.
Cambewarra Estate – Cambewarra (20 mins away)
Cambewarra Estate is a picturesque winery at the foothills of the mountain it’s named after. It’s the only winery in the area offering a High Tea Experience — yes, you can sip bubbles in a giant teacup while grazing on cakes and scones. With friendly staff, great rosé, and plenty of space for kids to roam, it’s a popular choice for families and girl’s weekends alike.
Fun option: Their Wine & Yoga sessions are worth checking out!
Mount Ashby Estate – Moss Vale (1 hour away)
Nestled in the Highlands countryside, Mount Ashby Estate blends French-inspired architecture, antiques, and wine into a unique day trip. Their cellar door is located inside a restored 1918 building, with views across a lake and vineyards. It’s a little slice of Europe in the Southern Highlands — think Pinot Gris, cheese platters, and crackling fireplaces in winter.
Tip: Browse their antique collection between tastings.

Run by passionate winemakers with a focus on traditional techniques, Marist Brothers Wines offers a down-to-earth tasting experience with plenty of charm.
