Levantine Hill x The Block: Exclusive filming at Australia’s Top-3 Ranked Winery

Levantine Hill Welcomes The Block for an Exclusive Filming Day in the Yarra Valley

Celebrating design and craftsmanship at Australia’s Top-3 Ranked Winery.

Levantine Hill was once again honoured to welcome Australia’s favourite design series, The Block, back to the Estate to film an especially defining and emotional episode.

Arriving in signature Levantine Hill style by helicopter, this season’s contestants—Emma & Ben, Han & Can, Britt & Taz, Sonny & Alicia, and Robby & Mat—joined hosts Shelley Craft and Scott Cam for a day that placed design, craftsmanship and precision at centre stage.

Filmed within the Winery, a light-filled, architecturally designed space by Fender Katsalidis, the episode marked a key turning point in the competition as both the auction reserves and the auction order were revealed. In keeping with our philosophy of craft without compromise, these announcements were presented on a Levantine Hill wine bottle, housed in a handcrafted Optume timber box—a refined nod to rarity, precision and design. In a moment of quiet suspense, the contestants were invited to unlock their auction reserve prices.

Underscoring our commitment to excellence and to supporting ambition, Levantine Hill has donated $250,000 worth of wine to be gifted to the buyers on auction day—a considered gesture designed to elevate the purchasing experience and help the contestants achieve the best possible results under the hammer.

The filming day concluded with the crew enjoying some of our Family Paddock wines alongside a Mediterranean-inspired dining service overlooking the vineyard grounds. At Levantine Hill, the pursuit of perfection lives in every line, every texture and every pour; a philosophy shared by those who build, design and compete on The Block.

Reserve your table and experience Levantine Hill for yourself. Book your dining reservation and a wine tasting at our Cellar Door today, or discover some of our world-class experiences on offer.
