Passel Estate is a very small, family-owned vineyard in the heart of Margaret River, with an emphasis on exceptional wine and nature conservation at its heart. The Estate's wines are a rare discovery: volumes made are small, given the quality-driven low yields and single-vineyard focus. The Estate has been awarded 5-star winery status by James Halliday, included in The Real Review Top Wineries of Australia and winner of Best Tasting Experience and Best Small Cellar Door in Margaret River by Gourmet Traveller Wine Magazine. Choose from a selection of guided wine experiences to ensure your visit is one to remember.
Start your journey at the contemporary tasting room, featuring floor to ceiling glass on three sides to guarantee an intimate connection with the surrounding vines and natural bushland sanctuary. Take your pick from a selection of carefully designed experiences, that will fully immerse guests in the beauty and magic of the estate and its award-winning wines.

The experience was amazing. Though short it was exactly what we were looking for. As a non wine drinker, I was unsure how I would go with wine but having it with food (in this case chocolate) it really helps with the flavour and makes it easier on the palate. The chocolate did change the taste of the wine in a pleasant way. I almost wish they sold the chocolate as well.

The Wine and Chocolate Pairing tasting exceeded my expectations. Book ahead to ensure your chocolates are ready for you. Two absolutely gorgeous cellar door staff who took their time to send me on my way with their best local wine and shopping recommendations. Flawless. Thank you for having me!
