Award winning boutique wines handcrafted from estate fruit. Dionysus Winery offers a large range of wines, including some rare varieties. Taste the whole range or choose your favourite to enjoy with lunch from their snack menu. Adding to the gourmet experience, Dionysus Winery has a range of local produce and has coffee made from locally roasted beans. Michael and Wendy O'Dea followed their dream to develop and open their own Winery.  After many years visiting wine regions and being envious of the people working in the wine industry, they did a lot of research, developed a cunning plan, sold their home and moved to Murrumbateman - home to serious wines.  They moved to Murrumbateman in 1996 and worked towards a planting of vines in 1998, along with the help of their enthusiastic friends and family. The first vine was planted on 3 October 1998 by Wendy's grandmother, May (on her 89th birthday), followed by another 3000 vines planted by friends and family.
