YERING STATION
The first vineyard in Victoria, the Yarra Valley’s Yering Station was originally planted in 1838. Its acquisition in 1996 by the Rathbone family marked the beginning of a new era with the construction of a state-of-the-art winery and award-winning tourism complex.
The winemaking team at Yering Station take a non-interventionist approach to allow full expression of the characteristics of the region, with particular emphasis on varietal flavours, structure and balance. When a grape variety performs exceptionally well throughout a season, a selection of the most outstanding parcels are released under our Reserve label.
Through consistently producing wines of elegance, structure, quality and distinction, Yering Station has built a reputation as one of the finest producers in the Yarra Valley and Australia. In 2004 this commitment to excellence was recognised when Yering Station was awarded the prestigious International Winemaker of the Year at the International Wine and Spirit Competition in London.
