For many decades, Cape Horn Vineyard lay waiting for a renewed life and the Harrison family re established the vineyard in 1994 with the planting of Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Shiraz, Durif, Marsanne and Zinfandel vines.
Now Cape Horn Vineyard and Riverside Bar is proudly owned by the Gilmour and Buckley families, both of whom have a long connection with the Murray River and the Echuca-Moama region.
The Vineyard and Riverside Bar now boasts a contemporary and spacious 5 bedroom Cape Horn Villa for guests to escape to the tranquil surrounds of grape vines.
Also added in recent times to embrace the Cellar Door and river views is the Riverside Deck providing perfect views for diners and wine tasters to relax and escape busy lives for a short while.
Shade sails, umbrellas and mist fans are provided during the summer months, along with the air conditioned Cellar Door, whilst in winter, pit fire places, gas heaters and the heated Cellar Door keeps you warm. Your hosts even supply marshmallows for toasting!
Whilst you relax watching the river flow by and tasting the Cape Horn wines, you can enjoy wood fired pizzas, cheese platters and dips along with a fully stocked bar.
Cape Horn Vineyard and Riverside Bar is the perfect venue for the entire family. Kids enjoy the playground and giant chess board, or just playing ball games on the extensive lawn area, and your pets are welcome too. The entry to the Vineyard is often seen with tethered horses comfortably grazing whist their riders enjoy a wine with a wood fired pizza.
You can tie your tinny or ski boat to the mooring jetty after meandering upstream from Echuca (approximately 30 minutes). A courtesy bus is available upon request for 10 adults or more and acoustic musicians can be enjoyed most weekends (refer to our What’s On page and download our Music Calendar).
There is no better place to sit back and take in the serenity of Cape Horn Vineyard and Riverside Bar, only 15 minutes from Echuca.
