Where family gathers, stories begin.

This table says everything about why we do what we do. Same hands, same hearts, tending the vines, pouring the w**es, and welcoming you to the table. 🍷

If you have been meaning to experience Steels Gate for yourself, book a visit and come share in the story.

W**e that sparks conversation.

Here’s what we’re tasting: bright acidity, gentle spice, a finish that lingers just long enough to make every bite better.

This is how w**e should be—shared, savoured, and always a little surprising.

Book your table and taste the difference for yourself. 🍷

There's no better way to understand a w**e than to eat alongside the person who made it.

At Steels Gate, the restaurant and cellar door aren't two separate things — they're the same story told in two languages. Matthew's kitchen runs on local produce, seasonal menus, and a genuine curiosity about what makes each ingredient (and each vintage) tick.

We've written a guide to what makes a great Yarra Valley w**ery restaurant experience, and what to look for when you're planning a lunch worth driving for.

Shhh… keep this on the down-low, but we only have 2 tables left! 🤫

If you’ve been thinking about joining us, this is your sign to lock it in. We’d absolutely hate to have to turn anyone away at the door on the day, but once these last two spots go, that’s it!
Grab your crew, claim the last seats, and book your table now before someone else beats you to it! 🏃‍♀️

Planning a Yarra Valley w**e day? 🍷

We might be biased, but we've put together a genuine local's guide to the best w**eries in the region — covering where to go, what to drink, and where to eat well.

Steels Gate is our natural starting point. Brad and Matthew have been crafting estate w**es from our Dixons Creek home since 2009, and what we've built here is something a little different: a fully integrated, family-run estate where the same people who look after the vines also pour your w**e and cook your meal.

Head to the blog for the full guide — including some of our favourite neighbouring producers we think are worth a stop on any Yarra Valley day out.

Forget The Office… welcome to The Cellar Door 🍷✏️

Ever wonder why you can never find a corkscrew or a pen when you need one? Meet Brad, our owner & vigneron, caught red-handed hoarding the entire supply on the counter.

"I swear I just needed one..." 😂

Cheers to a brilliant evening! 🍷✨

Huge thank you to The Alpine Hotel for having us as part of their incredible W**emaker Series last night. It was an unforgettable night filled with amazing food, exceptional Steels Gate w**e, plenty of laughs, and wonderful new friends around the table.

If you haven’t attended one of their W**emaker Series dinners yet, put it at the very top of your list—you're missing out!

Thanks to everyone who joined us and made the night so special. See you at the next pour! 🥂

We left corporate life to build this. ✨

Not for a trend. For a place that felt like ours.

At Steels Gate, the same family tends the vines, pours the w**e, and plates the food. It’s our way of honouring the land, and the reason every visit feels personal.

If you’ve ever wondered why we do what we do, come and taste the story for yourself.

Sixty kilometres from Melbourne. A world away. 🍷

Settle onto the deck, take in the vineyard views, and let us pour you through a flight of Steels Gate favourites. It’s the kind of afternoon that lingers. Slow, scenic, and just the right amount of special.

Grab a stool, we’ll pour the first one. Book your cellar door visit and make this your weekend sorted.

The vines are getting winter tidy.

This week in the vineyard, careful pruning is helping set up the season ahead. Every cut shapes the story of the next vintage, right here at our family estate 🍇

It’s quiet work, but it matters deeply. Come taste the result in the cellar door and restaurant. Book your visit and see what’s happening at Steels Gate.

Heading to Shedfest? Make sure we’re on your map!

We are officially participating in Shedfest this year, and our special festival menu is now LIVE! We’ve lined up incredible w**es, delicious food, and great vibes to keep you going all weekend long.

Not doing the official Shedfest circuit? No worries at all! You don't need a Shedfest ticket to come hang out. Our doors are wide open to everyone, so you can still swing by, grab a table, and enjoy a relaxed day out with us.

At Steels Gate, the menu doesn't follow the season by accident.

Matthew tends the Melba Block in the morning — the same block that's been growing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir since the early 1980s. By lunchtime, he's at the pass. Same person, same land, expressed two different ways.

We've written a new Behind the Label post exploring what that dual role actually means — how the kitchen garden shapes each plate, why the menu is written from the w**e rather than paired to it, and what "Where Terroir Meets Technique" looks like in practice.

Read it at the link below, or better still, come and sit down with us.

Why did we leave corporate life?

To build something real with our hands, our hearts, and our family. At Steels Gate, the same people who tend the vines also pour the w**e and welcome you to the table.

That’s the story behind every bottle, every meal, every visit. If you’ve been curious about what makes our little corner of the Yarra Valley different, come and experience it for yourself. 🍷

The vines are waking up quietly today.

Out in the rows, there’s a steady rhythm to the work, and our vineyard dog is never far from the action. These are the small, honest moments that shape every bottle we pour.

If you’d like to taste the season in the glass, come and visit us in Dixons Creek.

At Steels Gate, we keep things intimate, hands-on, and real. We don't do massive crowds or rigid scripts—which means when you pull up a chair at our Dixons Creek cellar door, you never know your luck... you just might get your w**e poured by our w**emaker, Brad.
