Tambo Wine is a quality focussed, family owned and operated, single vineyard winery located near the Gippsland Lakes in East Gippsland.

Fruit concentration, complexity, balance, length and sense of place are at the heart of great wine. These are characters which can be formed only in the vineyard.

Our primary task at Tambo Wine is to grow grapes with these characters which express the site and to maintain the essence of this fruit character to the bottle. There is no compromise taken in achieving this end.

Tambo Wine Estate has a cellar door that is open 11 to 5 every day during summer holidays. Other times 11 to 5 Thursday to Sunday, or by appointment.

Tambo Wines are available to purchase at the Winery Cellar Door. It is also available at the Metung Village Store and The Farmer and The Cook and many of our local restaurants, clubs & pubs.
