Fowles Wine

Fowles Wine is definitely worth the drive!! The views from the winery are stunning, and their wines are top-notch. We did a tasting and the staff were super friendly. We also had lunch at the restaurant – everything was amazing, but the creme brûlée was out of this world! Definitely my favourite winery!

We got married at Fowles in October and it was such a beautiful day. The staff went above and beyond for us, the food and wine were amazing as always and the venue itself is gorgeous! We would highly recommend Fowles whether it be for your own wedding or event or just someone to stop in for lunch!

We dined on Friday night. The staff were attentive, and the service was excellent. We had the cured fish as an entree and the eye fillet for the main. Highly recommend Fowles.

We took our mum 93rd birthday today 30th December 2024 to your winery. She was treated like Gold, we cannot thank you enough Lola, you went beyond The food was absolutely delicious , the atmosphere & fantastic service. The food & wine selections available were amazing. Highly recommend the drive for anyone. Looking forward to taking friends & hubby for a meal

We did a wine tasting, and had a great time with Gail. Not only we learned a lot about the wines, but we had a lot of fun while doing so, her bubbly personality definitely made it extra special. And I rarely buy from gift shops, but we enjoyed Fowles so much that we wanted a souvenir too. To sum up, very good wines, beautiful location, and lots of fun. We are definitely coming back!

The food. The wine. The service. The view - AMAZING! Couldn’t rate Fowles highly enough. We dropped in on the way back to Melbourne and the only thing wrong is that we didn’t come sooner. We will be back in a heartbeat! Thanks for an excellent afternoon.

Didn’t expect it to be as great as it was! Often times winery restaurants can be amiss with something, in most cases the food quality for the price you pay. But Fowles just ticks all the boxes, great food, service and pretty setting. The casual and laidback feel of this place is inviting and the restaurant is both family and budget friendly. Didn’t have an opportunity to try more than one kind of wine so can’t speak for the grape quality but would definitely be visiting again whenever I’m in the region, or maybe even make a trip for it.

A spectacular venue catering to all. Tasting room, gourmet shop, restaurant, function spaces available and even a courtyard and play ground for the kids. The food and beverage menu was extensive and the meals were delicious. Well worth a visit, especially considering it’s an easy exit off and re-entry to the Hume Hwy. A nice and easy drive from Melbourne. The grounds are gorgeous too and the outdoor spaces are beautiful for lovely weather.

Wonderful, friendly service in all areas. Delicious lunch with fresh foods, a glass of my favourite sparkling Moscato, a taste of the Chardonnay while seated at table. Beautiful ambience, clean, tidy, stunningly decorated and with the view to inspire. lovely shop and fabulous wine tasting area as well as inside and outside dining. My feedback is 100% worth going for foodies and of course wine lovers.

Truly a hidden gem. In Avenel Victoria We hadn't been here since Mother's Day last year so almost 18 months ago. I've always liked Fowles winery the food is good and the wine is very nice. When we got to the the car park it was packed and I thought that we wouldn't get a table as I hadn't booked. Much to our surprise once inside the entrance, they had renovated and there was a huge new dinning area and the wine tasting is now more spacious with lots of wine and country fare to tempt you. The new look was industrial yet country feel with rustic decor. Any way we thought we would just stop for a wine and some share platters that we've had before as there very nice. Once we sat down and got the menu and I saw the meals come out we quickly changed our minds. We got starters. Crumbed fennel and a tomato and goat cheese dish. The fennel was surprisingly good and the tomato and goat's cheese was like lasagna with out the pasta. It was very good. We ordered a bottle of red (stone dwellers Cab Sav) and our mains came out. I got the eye fillet. It was nice and thick, well cooked and a piece of caramelized onion herb butter on top. The steak was tender and heavenly to eat. Accompanied by some roaster potatoes and greens it was delicious. My partner got the lamb and white bean purée roast veggies and harissa. Which she enjoyed very much. But I gave her a piece of my steak and she was envious. As I had to drive I had a coffee and we thought we'd finish with the tasting plate from the dessert menu which included four small deserts on a plate. They were all nice but my pick of them was the lemon tart it was amazing. Slightly sour and a smooth filling and a crunchy biscuit base. I love the look of the new design and the food is a definite winner. The staff were very friendly and attentive to our needs. We will be back for sure.

The best wine tasting we have ever had! Michelle was super knowledgeable and knew answers to all our questions about wine. Great selection of wine, many varieties, i personally like the sparkling the most, and shiraz "ladies who shoot their lunch" was fantastic. Our experience was superb, definitely highly recommend!

Stopped here on the way back to Sydney from Melbourne...definitely a step up from Macca's! Unfortunately, while most mains are in the $30 range, both my barramundi and my partner's chicken were so plain and tasteless the only differential was their texture. When we realized my tomato relish was the only thing with flavor, there was a race as to who could claim the most off my plate. I would have given them a second chance with dessert, as they do have quite a spread, but my partner was over it so we hit the road instead. Three stars because the farm to table extra dry white wine I had was quite nice. I'd come back for a tasting, but given that I could personally have cooked better for $64, I would not be back for lunch.

Great farm to table breakfasts at this winery in Avenal, Victoria, Australia! Wines were good as well! Strathbogie wine valley area.

Ordered a linguine with prawns, zucchini, dill, tomato, and garlic. Never knew linguine was of a spaghetti pasta....? Had to request for the parmesan cheese. Taste - 5/10 Quantity - 5/10 Value - 4/10 Overall - 4/10. A group of 11 guests (!) who were not impressed. Not just me.

The food and service is fantastic. My wife and I were lucky enough to get married here and the staff could not do enough to help. Everything was seamless. What ever we needed they were onto it. We were lucky enough to receive wonderful feedback from our friends on how wonderful the whole day was. Ian the manager and Sam head of events transformed the court yard into such a special area it was all we could have asked for. This is not only a perfect location to grab breakfast or lunch but a superb location for a function. Did I mention how friendly the staff are!

Stopped on way from Melbourne to Albury and loved everything about it! We are going to make it a tradition. Great Food, excellent wine and lovely service.
