Driving south from Swansea on the East Coast Wine Trail, you’ll reach Mayfield Estate at Little Swanport, shortly followed by Boomer Creek Vineyard.

Half an hour further down the road at Orford, you’ll arrive at Darlington Vineyard – the southernmost stop on the trail.

Mayfield produce boutique, small batch wines including Pinot Gris, Rose, and Pinot Noir. Their family-run cellar door overlooking Great Oyster Bay is open Friday-Monday, and advance bookings are recommended. Boomer Creek is another spot with an incredible view. Enjoy a tasting platter and a glass of their award-winning wine as you look out over Schouten Island and the spectacular Freycinet Peninsula.
