Boat O'Craigo
Set against the rolling hills of Healesville in Victoria’s Yarra Valley, Boat O’Craigo is a second-generation, family-owned winery renowned for its handcrafted, single-vineyard wines and warm hospitality. With over 50 acres of vines across two distinct sites—Healesville and Kangaroo Ground—this boutique estate produces expressive cool-climate varietals that reflect both place and passion.
Named in tribute to the family’s ancestral village of Craigo in Scotland, Boat O’Craigo blends tradition with innovation. Their low-yielding vines are hand-picked at optimal ripeness, ensuring concentrated flavour and balance in every bottle. The portfolio includes Pinot Noir, Shiraz, Chardonnay, Riesling, and Grenache Rosé, each crafted with minimal intervention to showcase the purity of Yarra Valley fruit.
The Healesville cellar door is a destination in itself—boasting floor-to-ceiling windows, a cozy fireplace, and an expansive deck with panoramic vineyard views. Guests can enjoy guided tastings, seasonal antipasto platters, and the winery’s signature thin-crust pizzas, all served in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re visiting in summer or winter, the setting is designed for year-round enjoyment.
Recognised as James Halliday’s Dark Horse Winery of the Year in 2018, Boat O’Craigo continues to earn accolades for its quality and consistency. Their commitment to small-batch production, sustainable practices, and genuine customer connection has made them a standout in the Yarra Valley wine scene.
Beyond tastings, the estate hosts weddings, private events, and corporate functions, offering a picturesque backdrop and tailored service. With a focus on authenticity, family values, and exceptional wine, Boat O’Craigo invites guests to slow down, sip deeply, and savour the best of the Yarra Valley—one glass at a time.
