Stay with Merlot Verdelho – Dine at Mayura Station Experience
Indulge in the Best of Coonawarra
Escape to the heart of the Coonawarra wine region for an unforgettable getaway that blends luxury accommodation, world-class dining, and a fully hosted wine tour.
Stay at the beautifully appointed Merlot & Verdelho Residences in Penola, where comfort and style meet in the centre of town. Your experience begins with a welcome of Coonawarra wine and Cuvee chocolate on arrival at your townhouse. That evening, you’ll be whisked away to Mayura Station to savour a spectacular four-course Wagyu dining journey with matched wines at their renowned Tasting Room – a true paddock-to-plate indulgence.
The following day, enjoy exclusive private access to one of our tour vehicles as you are hosted on a full-day Coonawarra wine tour. A highlight of your journey will be a seasonal set-menu lunch at Ottelia, crafted with fresh local produce and perfectly paired with estate-grown wines.
This package is available for a minimum of two guests, staying in a King Mezzanine bedroom.
Looking to linger longer? Extra nights can easily be added on request.
Simon and Kerry did all the organising for us after getting to know our group and what we were thinking we would like to see and do. We just showed up and enjoyed it! Simon’s knowledge of the area and each winery was second to none and was excellent at sharing all the amazing little local gems! Simon went the extra mile in every aspect ensuring we were feeling the beautiful welcoming atmosphere of Coonawarra. We travelled in the new bus which was spacious and super comfortable. For all the insta crazy Simon had awesome photography skills and was great and knowing where to get a great shot to celebrate the vines and features of each winery. This experience was unreal - even those who are not massive wine drinkers loved it! We’re planning to make it an annual event!
