About Us

Note: Due to a fire in the old Tractor Shed adjacent to the restaurant, the restaurant will be closed until the end of 2019. The cellar door has temporarily relocated to the Petit Tracteur site until this time. Ten Minutes by Tractor started in 1997 with three family owned vineyards in Main Ridge, all ten minutes by tractor apart. Over the past 15 years, Martin and Karen have been the driving force that have taken Ten Minutes by Tractor on to become one of the leading cool climate wineries in Australia. At Ten Minutes by Tractor, their passion is great wine and great food. They offer a relaxed and intimate cellar door experience with in depth tastings where you can discover wines that are a true expression of the unique qualities and character of their vineyards. In the two hatted restaurant, Chef Adam Sanderson’s innovative menu is driven by fresh regional produce from our local growers and farm gates, our kitchen garden and foraged items from our forests, hills and coastline. This is overlaid with classic French training and experience working in some of the best restaurants in the world, including The Fat Duck and Noma.
