Top Wineries in the Gold Coast Region

The Gold Coast may be known for its stunning beaches and vibrant nightlife but it’s increasingly making a name for itself as a burgeoning wine region. Its proximity to tourist havens Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach makes it the perfect destination for a wine-tasting day trip.

Beyond the bustling urban areas, the Gold Coast hinterland is home to a handful of picturesque vineyards, creating a unique blend of coastal beauty and rural charm. Visiting any of these locations is a wonderful way to support the hinterland region while enjoying world-class wines.

Here are five must-visit wineries that showcase the Gold Coast’s growing wine culture:

Winery on Mount Tamborine

 

Cedar Creek Estate Vineyard & Winery

Location: 104 – 144 Hartley Road, North Tamborine

Describing Cedar Creek Estate Vineyard & Winery as merely a charming winery with picturesque grounds would be an understatement. The moment you enter its tree-lined driveway, past Cedar Creek Chapel, you’ll know you’re in for an extraordinary experience. Not only does it offer delightful wine tastings of its wide variety of wines, but Cedar Creek Estate also boasts its glow worm cave, rainforest walks, and abundant wildlife. With its cellar door open daily, an onsite restaurant for a leisurely lunch or high tea, and the backdrop of a gorgeous lake, it’s more than just a winery, it’s an all-encompassing experience.
