The Yarra Valley range is made from handpicked fruit from all of our estate vineyards. The wines are produced using indigenous yeasts, gravity-flow winemaking, and minimal fining and filtration. This approach produces highly expressive wines, true to the regional characteristics of the Yarra Valley.
VINTAGE NOTES
2021 was an outstanding vintage in the Yarra Valley. The season was defined by a cool Spring, a mild growing season, cool nights and some conveniently
spaced rain events. The vineyards developed dark green healthy canopies with strong vine energy and solid fruit set. This resulted in balanced crops with concentrated bunch flavour, vibrant colours and high tone perfumes.
