At a Glance
Lark Hill Winery sits in Bungendore, about 35 kilometres south-east of Canberra, and counts among the earliest established wineries in the Canberra District. Founded in 1978, it has spent decades working with the elevated cool-climate conditions that define this region, building a consistent reputation around a focused selection of varieties that suit the terrain particularly well.
The Wines
Lark Hill's portfolio centres on three varieties — Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Grüner Veltliner — each well-matched to the Canberra District's cool growing conditions and significant diurnal temperature variation. Riesling is a natural fit for the region, capable of producing wines with good acid structure and longevity. Grüner Veltliner, the Austrian white grape, has found a small but enthusiastic following in the Canberra District, where the climate bears some resemblance to its European homeland. Pinot Noir rounds out the range, a variety that rewards the patience required to grow it well in cooler, higher-altitude sites.
Cellar Door Experience
The cellar door offers tastings, tours, and a wine shop, giving visitors a few different ways to engage with the wines and the property. Whether you're after a straightforward tasting session or a more in-depth look at the winery, there are options to suit. It's worth checking the Lark Hill website ahead of your visit to confirm current opening hours, booking requirements, and any seasonal variations to what's on offer.
Getting There
Lark Hill is accessible by car from Canberra via well-maintained roads, with the drive taking roughly 35 minutes from the city centre. If you're travelling with a caravan or as part of a coach group, check the website directly for access details before making the trip.
