Zonzo

Hidden behind the old railway road where the affectionately known Train Trak winery once operated, now sits the family-friendly winery and restaurant, Zonzo Estate. Overlooking the vines and rolling green hills of the Yarra Valley, Zonzo offers a seasonal Italian menu served in a rustic, farmhouse-style location outside Yarra Glen.

Operating since 2007, the restaurant name Zonzo which means - ‘to wander about or stroll around’ – was acquired by the entire Estate in March 2015 to reflect the scenic, relaxed atrmosphere of this Yarra Valley escape. As guests graze on antipasto on the outdoor terrace, or enjoy family gatherings within the restaurant; watching kids run freely on the green pastures, Zonzo  Estate avidly anticipates its debut wine vintage in mid 2016.

To start, the carciofi fritti is a standout - Crumbed artichoke hearts drizzled with sticky vincotto. For mains we recommend their delicious pizzas to share with friends as well as their heartier main options. The stinco di agnello, slow cooked lamb shank in San Marzano tomato, baby carrots, baby potatoes, spanish onion, chilli and spring herbs served with fluffy casalinga bread in particular is very satisfying. Desserts are simple and hit the spot.
