There are tantalising taste trails in the Yarra Valley, Mornington Peninsula and Bellarine Peninsula. And we’ve hand-picked a selection of Phillip Island’s gourmet treats too. If you’re a keen cook or have green thumbs, you’ll find plenty of options for learning more from local chefs, and from local producers about growing your own fruit and vegetables. For example, there’s an edible forest in the Yarra Valley where the chef includes guest-picked produce in cooking classes. On an orchard tour, ask questions about the 450 varieties of fruit. The Mornington Peninsula has the Wine Food and Farmgate trail and a boutique farm offering tours and farm picnics. The Bellarine Taste Trail and the Moorabool Valley Taste Trails take in more than 50 makers, producers, wineries and brewers. All these trails offer dozens of opportunities to taste and learn more about wine, cider, beer and distilling craft gin, rum and whisky. DOWNRIGHT DECADENT You’ll find some extra special treats too, such as a chocolate factory on Phillip Island where you can create your own edible masterpiece. But if you just want to sit back in beautiful restaurants for lunch and dinner, this is itinerary planning made simple. Spectacular wineries offer tastings and casual and formal dining, while restaurants reveal extraordinary views of deserted coastlines and rolling green hills. Some wineries feature magnificent sculpture gardens and there’s a 130year old milking shed in Yarra Valley where you can enjoy a platter of handmade cheese. You can stay overnight at gourmet retreats with day spas, book a self-contained villa, sleep surrounded by pictureperfect gardens and vineyards, stay seaside or lakeside. 1 2 3 4 1.
