Nicholson River Winery is a family-run vineyard in East Gippsland, Victoria, planted in 1978 a few kilometres off the Princes Highway, whose Barrel Room restaurant takes weddings and other functions. The room seats about 70 and opens onto a wraparound deck overlooking the Nicholson River, with catering supplied by outside local caterers chosen by the couple.
