Frequently asked questions

Which wineries can you visit on the Granite Belt?

Ballandean Estate is the oldest family-owned winery in Queensland and the best known cellar door in the region. Nearby, Twisted Gum and La Petite Mort are at Ballandean, Mountview Wines and Art of Krupinski at Glen Aplin, Ravenscroft Vineyard at Stanthorpe, and Casley Mount Hutton at Greenlands. Most are small family operations, so hours vary.

Is there anything besides wine on the Granite Belt?

Yes. Granite Belt Brewery at Stanthorpe makes beer on site, Secret Valley Distillery is at Greenlands, and the district's orchards around Applethorpe and Pozieres sell apples, stone fruit and, in summer, strawberries — Queensland's only summer strawberry crop, because the altitude keeps it cool enough.

When is the best time to visit the Granite Belt?

Vintage runs through late summer and autumn, and the orchards are picking from roughly December to April. Winter is cold by Queensland standards, which is the point of the region's Brass Monkey season, but some smaller cellar doors reduce their hours then.

How far is the Granite Belt from Brisbane?

Stanthorpe is roughly three hours south-west of Brisbane and about an hour south of Warwick, on the New England Highway near the New South Wales border.
