Welcome to Del Rios Vineyard and Winery, a picturesque escape located at 2290 Geelong-Ballan Rd, Anakie, where the legacy of viticulture is artfully fused with modern winemaking. Established on the rich, volcanic soil of Mt Anakie, this family-operated gem is a testament to innovation and tradition. Architectural splendor is evident in the natural stone and rustic timber that adorn the winery and restaurant, creating an inviting atmosphere that echoes the landscape's raw beauty.

The winery's ambiance is characterized by a warm and intimate decor that complements the breathtaking views of the vine-covered hillsides. With various areas dedicated to tasting, dining, and celebrating, each space is equipped to provide a memorable experience, from the intimate corners for wine connoisseurs to the expansive terraces that welcome group gatherings. The gentle hum of conversation and the soft notes of background music ensure that the sound complements rather than intrudes, allowing the natural tranquility to take center stage.

Del Rios prides itself on its 'paddock to plate' ethos, serving up a fusion of traditional Spanish flavors and contemporary Australian cuisine, all underscored by the exquisite, handcrafted wines by winemaker Gus del Rio. Here, every visit is an invitation to indulge in the confluence of fine wine, delectable food, and genuine hospitality, set against a backdrop of pastoral splendor.
