Cape Mentelle

Cape Mentelle is a premium, historic cellar door on Wallcliffe Road, about 4km from Margaret River town toward the coast, and it welcomes well-behaved dogs on leads in its outdoor areas. The pull is a refined tasting on the lawns and garden courtyard with the dog settled beside you.

The dog setup. Dogs on leads are welcome on the lawns and in the garden courtyard. They are not allowed inside the cellar door building or the restaurant. One thing to note: dogs are not permitted in the gardens during the winery's outdoor movie screenings, so check the events calendar before you plan a visit. Water is usually available on request, but pack a portable bowl to be safe.

Good to know. Cape Mentelle is known for its acclaimed, trophy-winning Cabernet Sauvignon, with bar or seated tastings of up to five wines (walk-ins and bookings both welcome) and a small grazing menu.

Getting there and parking. The address is 331 Wallcliffe Road. From the southern end of the main street, head toward the coast along Wallcliffe Road and the winery is on the left. There is on-site parking.

Nearby with the dogs. Settlers Tavern in town has a dog-friendly courtyard, Wooditjup National Park is close for scenic walks, and several other regional cellar doors welcome dogs.

A weekday or early afternoon visit is calmest for a tasting with a dog, well clear of any evening event setup.
