Where Brisbane actually goes for wine

Four regions, all doable in a day from the city.

Mount Cotton is the easy one — Sirromet is about forty-five minutes from the CBD in the Redlands, and it works as a half-day or a long lunch. It is the most popular chauffeured wine run out of Brisbane by a distance, and for good reason.

Mount Tamborine sits roughly an hour south in the Gold Coast hinterland, and rewards a full day. The cellar doors are clustered close enough together that you can genuinely visit three or four, and the drive up the mountain is part of the experience rather than a chore.

The Scenic Rim — Boonah, Kalbar and the country around Mount French — is quieter, more agricultural and increasingly good. The Granite Belt around Stanthorpe is Queensland's serious wine region and about three hours each way, which makes it a long day trip or, better, an overnight. We do all four, and we will tell you honestly which one suits the group you are describing.

How a tour day works

Private touring, not a shared bus

It's your vehicle and your driver for the day. The itinerary is yours to change as you go.

Private, not sharedYour group only. No strangers, no fixed departure time, no waiting for someone who wandered off.
Full-day hourly hireThe car and chauffeur stay with you all day. Change the plan at lunchtime if you want to — that's the point.
Cellar door bookings arrangedTell us where you'd like to go and we'll make the reservations, including lunch, so nothing is turned away at the door.
Door-to-door from homeCollected from your address and returned to it. Nobody drives, nobody nominates a skipper, nobody counts drinks.
Groups up to elevenA V-Class takes seven comfortably, a Sprinter minibus eleven. Bigger groups run in convoy.
Purchases carriedCases bought at the cellar door go in the vehicle, not on your lap. There's room, and it's climate-controlled.
Esky and water on boardChilled water all day as standard, and space for anything you want to keep cold.
Flexible finishIf lunch runs long — and it should — we adjust. Extra hours are charged at the same rate, agreed on the day.

Questions

Before you book

Which wine region is best for a day trip from Brisbane?

Sirromet at Mount Cotton if you want the easiest option — around forty-five minutes each way and excellent as a long lunch. Mount Tamborine if you want to visit several cellar doors in one day. The Granite Belt is the most serious wine but three hours each way, so it works better as an overnight than a day trip.

How many cellar doors can we fit in a day?

Three is comfortable, four is possible if they're close together, five is a bad idea. Tastings take longer than people plan for and rushing the last stop defeats the purpose. We'll build a realistic route rather than an ambitious one.

Do you book the cellar doors and lunch for us?

Yes, and we'd recommend it. Most Queensland cellar doors now want bookings, particularly for groups and for lunch on a weekend, and turning up unannounced with eleven people rarely ends well.

How is a tour day priced?

As hourly as-directed hire with a minimum block, quoted as a fixed total up front based on the region and the hours. If the day runs long we charge the same hourly rate for the extra time and agree it with you on the day — there's no penalty rate for enjoying yourselves.

Can we bring wine home with us?

Absolutely, and there's proper room for it. Cases go in the luggage area rather than on your lap, and the vehicle is climate-controlled, which matters more than people realise on a hot Queensland afternoon.
