Since 2005, Rod Micallef and his team have worked to establish Zonzo Estate not only as a YV destination, but as a revered winery. It’s been a prolific twenty years and—not content to rest on the many laurels accumulated since—they keep pushing to be better.

Most of the HQ team have been around long enough to see the business grow from a single restaurant to what it is today.

Through it all, the team is a lot like family. The fact they get to work in beautiful surrounds is second only to being surrounded by awesome people.

Caroline and Jeff live and breathe winemaking. Their approach is traditional, hands-on and creative: exploring, experimenting, refining and delighting drinkers. You can find them in our Lilydale winery, where they turn our harvests into something extraordinary.

Our head chef Dave and Zonzo restaurant capo Adolfo (who’s been around since the very beginning) are the lynchpins of our Yarra Glen and Healesville restaurants.

Zonzo’s venues represent some of the best dining and hospitality you can find in the region, a class act that keeps everyone on their toes from the top down.

If you love working in the great outdoors, you'll be envious of this team. Led by Phil, our vineyard and farm team are always busy: tending to vines, mowing lawns, gardening, maintenance and caring for livestock... no day is ever the same. They love working in the heart of the Yarra Valley on such a magnificent property.
