   It was such a beautiful place for both a wine tasting and lunch. Wines are great and you can buy a lovely cheese platter to go with them. Highly recommend

   Absolutely love Bendooley Estate! The wine tasting was great fun and the food is, as always, amazing. Staff always go above and beyond to see you are taken care of. My favourite place to visit in the Southern Highlands.

   What an amazing way to experience a wine tasting at such a beautiful location! We loved having our own table to be able to sit and enjoy both the wines and the company. The staff were great and it sure pays to have people working in the right field. You could tell the staff had a true passion for what they do and we appreciated the fabulous service. Highly recommend!

    We love Bendooley and usually cannot fault it, however on this day they were understaffed and our tasting took nearly 2 hours, with long breaks in-between each sample, we were on a time limit of 1 hour as we were told that is how long it would take. I think they were just over-run as it was the Easter weekend. They most definitely needed more than 2 people working the Cellar Door.

The view of the vineyard was spectacular. Would definitely visit this winery again and recommend to other people! This is the Southern Highlands best-kept secret!

    All I can say is out of 10 the wine is 6. It used to be 3 but theres a little bit of improvement there. The service is OK! The wine tasting was super rushed. Online it says “Knowledgeable Staff”Not sure about that he only described the wine by the name, year, and flavour. Which it was already mentioned on the description. Also I put a note when I was booking it in but nothing happens. Oh well, what do you expect. It’s just all about the ambiance and the views but the wine I recommend “PEPPERGREEN ESTATE” and “CHERRY TREE HILL” they were the real educational wine expert experience not Bendooley Estate.

    Overall good atmosphere and wines. One thing I did not enjoy was the server’s/waiter’s attitude (Indian heritage) He was unenthusiastic and impatient. His performance doesnt inspire customers to purchase more from the cellar door. His pour for the wine tasting among 4x customers on the same table was uneven in volume. Customer service could be better.

    Took the missus for her birthday. We had a nice lunch food was not amazing but definitely yummy and will fill your stomachs. We also went wine tasting, that was worth every dollar and more. Service for both was excellent, I can't praise it more.

    Possibly the most impersonal wine tasting experience I’ve encountered and I’ve been to most wine regions in Australia and numerous overseas. We paid $10 to taste 4 wines, from a selected list of either whites, reds or premium so we couldn’t even choose 4 from the menu of 12. They were all poured at once and sat in front of us at our table with very little explanation and no ability to ask questions. We struggled to even find one that we liked amongst the 12 we tried (3 people so had one list each). Would never recommend or come again.

    Bendooley's is always wodnerful. Starting with wine tasting was a good idea, as we could relax and then decide which wine we should continue drinking at lunch. We were in the cellar for lunch, plenty of natural light and space between tables. We ordered the pesto pumpkin feta pine nuts pizza to share, followed by the mushroom entre and eggplant main. Both dishes had middle eastern touches, both were delicious!
