"An essential stop for any visitor, Chateau Leamon is easy to find and easy to like. The Shiraz is a model for the region, with spice and pepper, some attractive mintyness, and great complexity; Cabernet Merlot is intense, tasting of cassis and sour cherries; it is a well structured and quite refined piece of goods. Do not neglect Leamon's excellent whites, light, lifted Riesling; and flavoursome Semillon" Ben Canaider

'Just off the main road in the forest south of Bendigo, Chateau Leamon has been a going concern for a lot longer than most in the region. As a result, its top red wines come from mature vines and show plenty of depth and richness. Reserve Shiraz is a worthy flagship. Flavoursome Riesling also features here, and it's very reasonably priced. This is a friendly, understated place. Affable proprietor Ian Leamon is happy to chat.' Ralph Kyte-Powell
