Skillogalee

My husband and I did a wine tasting hosted by Jacqui. She is absolutely amazing. Nothing was too hard, we spend over 2 hours hearing the history of the vineyard and the wines. Really outstanding service!! We also came back the next evening for the 6 course dinner tasting. It was superb. The food was amazing, service was impeccable. We will return without a doubt! We were also guests at the willow glen house. A really clean and well stocked stay. Our host Dave ensured our stay was just perfect. The pool was great for our family to relax. The kitchen is spotless and well stocked. And the outdoor areas allowed us to relax, play board games and take in the beauty of the farm. We would recommend and would come back again and stay!

Fun movie night! Fantastic atmosphere and great food & drinks. Love that there are different options available for everyone, so you can have a special evening with 3 course dinner or keep it casual with a gourmet takeaway menu and snacks. The G&T's, Pink Granita & Frose were amazing! Look forward to coming to another event.

We had a wonderful lunch at Skillogalee. We were a party of 11 and the service was perfect. Cheryl our waitress was always one step ahead of us anticipating our requests. The food was delicious and the pacing of time between each course was spot on. The dining area is well set out with minimal noise despite the large open space. We look forward to returning next time we are in Auburn.

Stayed at Owl cottage with five of us. Sweet house, very tranquil with great views and only a short walk from the cellar door. The breakfast provisions and extras were amazing, local produce and very generous. Staff at the cellar door were fantastic, really enjoyed the stay, couldn’t have asked for anything else. Planning on when we can come back!

Chose Skillogalee's Barrel House for our wedding anniversary lunch (with a couple of friends) and it definitely exceeded our expectations! We were made very welcome by Priscilla and the lovely Cheryl made sure our celebration was a special one. Nothing was too much trouble! And the meal was delicious - and the wine superb! Highly recommend!!

Had such a nice time at the new Skillogalee cellar door, the staff were so hospitable and kind, giving of their time and expertise about the wines- thanks Jackie!- and even though they had a big group they made sure I was looked after and every customer was looked after. What a great job they do. The barrel room/cellar door is cool even in the hot weather and is perfect for single visitors or groups. Hats off Skillogalee- and the wine portfolio is top notch- great variety and some faves included the sparkling riesling, all the rieslings, cab franc, grenache, cab sav, malbec.. special

Experienced the wine tasting only. So much effort for only a « temporary » tasting room. From the toilets to the terrace, wether it’s the furniture, the decoration, the tapestry, you can see the refinement everywhere. A high end establishment comes with a high quality service: Iris hosted us with manners and knew her craft perfectly. Lovely to be guided by her through our tasting. The bresaola beside the tasting was delicious. Even the sparkling water was specially tasty. Easily in the top 3 of our tastings in Clare Valley. MUST visit!

Stayed here 4 nights, at around $250 per night. The smallest accommodation option they offer, with 2 bedrooms, one bathroom and one separate toilet. Also has a full kitchen, lounge and dining room. At the time of booking, they state that breakfast provisions will be provided. Wow, the fridge was full of stuff (refer photos) : 16 eggs, 4 bacon packs, 2 packs of sausages, 4 tomatoes, 2L milk, 8 x OJ, fresh bread loaf, butter, multiple single yoghurts, cookies, cheese plate, multiple cans of soft drink, 2 beer cans, bottle of Riesling, carafe of Port, cereal, and the kitchen has tea, coffee, sugars, cooking oil, etc, etc. Amazing value and a short walk to the Winery if you plan on enjoying a long lunch. Highly recommended.

Skillogalee Wines was the most disappointing of our wine tour. The tasting area was miniscule, and it was difficult to fit everyone in there comfortably. There were 15 of us, and the staff seemed quite put out that we were crowding the space. One of them also seemed quite put out that we were there at all, and was on auto-pilot as she was pouring the wines. We had to ask quite often what it was that we were drinking, as she didn't bother telling us. I get the feeling that she thought we were just another drunk wine tour bus (not true), and didn't bother to find out whether we were serious about wine (which we were!). We were given some lovely wines to taste ... but they were way overpriced for what they were (one was $70 per bottle!!) - then again, the woman didn't give us much of a chance to savour the flavours, as she was rushing to get through them all and get us out of there. I don't think any of us purchased any wine there - and I think this was due mainly to the attitude of the staff. Won't be back here!
