Please come and join us at our beautiful wine tasting space.
The unique tasting room was designed purposefully to feel more like a creative, stylish, cosy residence than a commercial space. With eclectic antique furnishings, personal artwork, rich textures, colours, fabrics, and antique taxidermy, it has to be seen to be believed.
The pièce de résistance is the 12 feet high Vine Terrace that runs along the North facing side of the building. With its stunning views over the grapevines and private booth-like tables, this space is perfect for all special occasions and celebrations.
We have different options available for all with stunning views over the grapevines up to the South West Mountains.
No reservations are needed for the 10 parasol tables on our lawn. They are first come first serve so feel free to turn up if no reservations are available.
We can’t wait to welcome you here.
Merrie Mill has a beautiful, whimsical 5,000-square-foot tasting room perfect for the summer and winter. The centerpiece, a large wood-burning fireplace, keeps guests warm on chilly days. The high-top, handmade, live-edge wood tables throughout the space are reservable.
There is a $25.00 set-up fee for tables of 8 or more, so please call to make the booking or email events@merriemillfarm.com.
*Please note the seating in the tasting room is limited.
