Welcome to the Yarra Valley – Australia's leading cool climate wine region.

The Yarra Valley is Victoria's oldest wine region, with over 3 600 hectares under vine. It is also Victoria's most visited wine area, located just one hours drive from Melbourne's CBD and airport.

"Yarra Valley Chardonnay is really going places these days, and the direction is restraint and complexity." Tim White,  Australian Financial Review, Sep. 28-30, 2007. 

" Yarra Valley is Australia's most interesting wine tourist destination, closely followed by (in random order) Margaret River, Barossa Valley and the Hunter." Tim White,  Australian Financial Review, May 11-13 2007.
