Stumpy Gully Vineyard and Restaurant

Forget the standard winery grazing board. Down in Moorooduc, Stumpy Gully Vineyard is playing a completely different game. You walk in for the estate-grown terroir, but get blindsided by the kitchen. Now home to Black Salt, the culinary program delivers a vibrant, Asian-influenced menu that upends all cellar door expectations. Peninsula food obsessives are quietly claiming tables just for Chef Rachelle’s flawless duck confit. The ultimate power move? Handing over the reins for the Chef's Selection. It’s a generous, impeccably plated progression that pairs dangerously well with a pour of their standout Pinot Noir. Even the most demanding palates are tipping their glasses to the new Moscato—crisp, bright, and blissfully free of cloying sweetness. Whether you're settling in for an intimate lunch or taking over the atmospheric barrel room for a private fête, the hospitality is remarkably sharp. Serious viticulture meets heavy-hitting flavor.
