Vallonné Vineyards

Top choice in Nashik


First and foremost a boutique winery known for its Cabernet Sauvignon and Vin de Passerillage dessert wine (tastings ₹400; 11am to 4.30pm), not to mention the fantastic Malaka Spice restaurant, Valloné also has two vineyard-view rooms that offer the most extraordinary vistas of any Nashik wine country hotel. Don't expect hotel services, however – though the views make up for this.
