'The little navy blue and yellow rail motor that used to ply the Yarra Valley is long gone, but the railway track remains, running across this beautifully kept property. It feels as much like a working farm as a winery, with Zonzo's wood-fired pizza restaurant in the old milking shed, and the cellar door in an old tractor shed. There's a wonderful view of distant Mount Dandenong, and Napoleon the moose looks down on you from the wall as you taste the estate's wines, especially the elegantly balanced reds.' RALPH KYTE-POWELL
Situated 50km North-East of Melbourne, nestled by the Yarra River, in the heart of the Yarra Valley, the Train Trak vineyard produces premium quality grapes, which reflect the regions' cool climate, rich soil and ideal elevation.
At Train Trak vineyard the first vines were planted in 1995, and nurtured thereafter by the superior viticulture practices of John Evans. All of the award winning wines are produced solely from estate grown hand picked grapes.
The Train Trak Cellar Door and Zonzo's Pizzera opened to the public in early 2007, located in a beautifully renovated dairy shed, the Ristorante can seat 110 + people, and has one of the most spectacular views of the Yarra Valley and Dandenongs.
The property is still a working farm and offers a fantastic, relaxed, rustic atmosphere which combines top class food and premium Yarra Valley wines. Train Trak wines feature Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon.
