'There is no better introduction to the delights of the Yarra Valley wine region than a stop at this Australian outpost of French champagne house Moet et Chandon. The spectacular cellar door and Greenpoint Brasserie provide panoramic views across a pastoral paradise of vines, meadows, hills and a lake. Naturally, the highest quality sparkling wine is the centre point here, but table wines are similarly outstanding. Take a tour to learn about sparkling wine production the Champagne way, stroll the beautiful gardens, breathe the atmosphere in. This is one of the Yarra's priceless jewels.' - Ralph Kyte-Powell
