Domaine Naturaliste

The lead. Domaine Naturaliste is a modern cellar door on Bussell Highway in Wilyabrup, with award-winning wines from winemaker Bruce Dukes and a relaxed outdoor courtyard. Well-behaved dogs on leads are welcome in the courtyard and footpath area, with vineyard views.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome on a lead in the outdoor courtyard and surrounding footpath area. Tasting itself usually happens indoors, so plan for your dog to wait outside on a lead or with a partner while you taste. The courtyard is a pleasant spot to relax over the vines. Bring your own water and bowl, as dedicated dog amenities are not guaranteed.

Good to know. Bruce Dukes is the name here, with balanced, complex wines, particularly Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Sauvignon. The cellar door is an intimate, relaxing setting, and there are occasional Harvest Sundowner events with food and music.

Getting there and parking. Find it at 3915 Bussell Highway, Wilyabrup, with an easy gravel car park right outside the cellar door. Park near the outdoor seating if you have a dog.

Nearby with the dogs. Other dog-friendly Wilyabrup cellar doors are close by. Willyabrup Beach allows dogs on lead, and nearby forest trails suit a run; check signage.

When to go. Mid-morning is quiet; mild and autumn days suit the courtyard. Good for settled dogs comfortable waiting outdoors on a lead.
