About Payten & Jones
A characterful Yarra Valley cellar door tucked, Payten & Jones sits in Healesville and holds a 4.9-star rating across 187 Google reviews. The cellar door is the focus here — a chance to taste through the range with someone who actually makes the wine, in a setting that's been crafted by years of careful viticulture.
Cellar door tastings are typically walk-in friendly, though weekends can be busy. Most venues offer flights of 5-8 wines for a small fee, often refundable against a purchase. The mix here usually leans toward cool-climate varieties — pinot noir, chardonnay, cabernet — that the Yarra Valley is known for.
Notable features include wheelchair access and accessibility features and a dog-friendly policy for the outdoor area. One recent guest summed it up: "Great products here. The Pinot Gris is crisp, clean and it evokes joyful emotions. A must try for those who love wine . Thank you for such a delightful experience🙏🏼"
Payten & Jones operates 7 days a week, giving plenty of options for fitting it into a Yarra Valley itinerary. Cellar door tastings are most enjoyable midweek when crowds are lighter; weekend visits can mean queueing for tastings, particularly during the March-May autumn season.
You'll find Payten & Jones at 3 Lilydale Rd, Healesville VIC 3777, Australia. With bookings on 03 5913 7699. And full menu details on the venue's website. The cellar door is the obvious reason to drop in, but several nearby venues offer lunch within a short drive.
