Henry of Harcourt

Welcome to Henry of Harcourt

Just over an hour north of Melbourne, and smack bang in the centre of the state, lies the beautiful valley of Harcourt. Renowned for its granite, and known as the apple centre of Victoria, it nestles beneath the magestic Mount Alexander. In those foothills you will find a small family run orchard, that specialises in growing traditional cider apples, and turning them into boutique varietal ciders.

Situated on the family farm over looking a small dam on which ducks play, the cellar door is open for tastings and sales everyday except Christmas Day, so come and meet the cider makers and try some ciders that will open you eyes to the world of "Real Ciders".

Open Hours: Mon to Sat 9am - 5pm / Sun 10am - 5pm
