Toast your Australian vacation with a visit to Domaine Chandon, simply a must when staying in the Yarra Valley. When Moet & Chandon purchased the Green Point property, the original homestead, built around 1880, was renovated and a purpose built winery located next door. The architecture is a marriage of modern architecture with traditional features of Champenoise tradition.
A visit to Domaine Chandon is often described as the highlight of a Melbourne visit.
