Barrique Wine Store is a main-stay of the Healesville main street, and a hub for wine lovers. The store is the Yarra Valley’s favourite source of local, international, and inspirational wines, beers and spirits. For 20 years, it has served the community of wine lovers and wine-curious with an ever-changing library of excellent drinks. Every wine is fastidiously tasted before listing for sale, so staff have intimate knowledge of every bottle on the shelves.
Current owners, Claire and Mike Emmett, have transformed the space into a community hub for wine, hosting popular tastings every Friday from 5pm, with Ryan Frost’s ‘Frosty’s Food Truck’ in the courtyard garden serving a different menu every week. Master classes are held regularly, featuring wine, sake, and spirits. Regular feature dinners such as the annual ‘Le Tour de France’ are inspired by the great wines of the world and the places they come from.
