The best way to get a full view of the vineyards of the Grampians and the Pyrenees is on a flight with recent arrivals to Stawell, Grampians Helicopters.
Headed by flying fanatic Justin Neofitou and his wife Justine, Grampians Helicopters has a large range of trips to gourmet destinations, and can also put together bespoke tours.
Neofitou, who has worked in Ayers Rock and Darwin, is also a wine enthusiast, full of local knowledge.
The Grampians Wine Tours offer spectacular views of the Grampians National Park as well as visits to Best's, including a cellar tour, and Montara Wines, near Ararat, for a wine tasting and local produce tasting plate. This tour lasts around 3 ½ hours.
Another option is a Pyrenees Wine Tour that includes stops at leading wineries Mount Langhi Ghiran, Blue Pyrenees (with a seasonal produce platter) and Dalwhinnie, which lasts around 4 ½ hours.
There are also lunch tours to destinations including Deirdre's at Laharum Grove, an organic olive grove, and to the Royal Mail Hotel at Dunkeld. Short flights can also be arranged.
