Nestled in the heart of the serene Yarra Valley, Rochford Wines offers a cozy winter escape filled with warmth and charm. Imagine arriving at our picturesque estate, where the chill in the air is perfectly balanced by the inviting glow of our welcoming spaces. At Isabella’s Restaurant, you’re greeted by panoramic views that stretch across the valley, and the comforting crackle of a fireplace sets the scene for cozy fireside dining. Our signature slow-cooked meats and hearty vegetarian dishes, crafted to perfection, promise a refined yet relaxed dining experience that warms both the heart and soul.
New to the winter experience at Isabella’s is our special curry offer, crafted with love by our Executive Chef, Ramiz Shaikh. Hailing from Gujarat in western India, Chef Ramiz brings his passion for Indian flavours to our menu. Start with two fresh samosas and a flavourful dipping sauce, followed by your choice of a mild fish curry infused with delicate spices or a traditional tandoori chicken dish served with rice. Finish off your meal with a wine tasting at our cellar door. This culinary journey is sure to warm your heart and leave you smiling.
As you stroll through our grounds, the tranquility of the lake draws you towards Il Vigneto Pizzeria. Here, the aroma of authentic Italian fare wafts from our wood-fired oven, enticing you to savour every bite in a laid-back setting. The pizzeria’s lively ambiance makes it the perfect spot to create memorable moments with family and friends.
