Yarra Yering is one of Australia’s most celebrated wineries with a first-rate international reputation.
Planted in 1969 by our founder, Dr Bailey Carrodus, our unirrigated vines produce elegant, complex and powerful Yarra Valley wines. Approachable as young wines, they also have the ability to develop in the bottle for many years.
Yarra Yering winemaker Sarah Crowe was recently named James Halliday’s 2017 Winemaker of the Year. After a long career in the Hunter Valley, Sarah joined Yarra Yering in 2013 to experience wine-making in the Yarra Valley.
With Sarah at the helm, the tradition that Dr Carrodus began in 1969 when he planted the first vineyards at Yarra Yering continues.
Our winery is considered among the best in Yarra Valley, largely because we operate on this premise: the better the fruit quality and condition, the less winemaking influence is required to deliver premium wine that lasts through the ages.
All fruit at Yarra Yering is hand-picked in the cool of the morning, and delivered direct to the winery. Our stainless steel-lined wooden tea chest fermenters were designed by Dr Carrodus to hold just the right amount of fruit to fit into the basket press.
In our underground barrel cellar, the wine completes malolactic fermentation in various French oak barrels.
Round out your tour of the top Yarra Valley wineries with a visit to our unique cellar door. Here we offer an extensive tasting of some of the Yarra Valley’s most iconic wines.
The Yarra Yering cellar door is located in our founder Dr Bailey Carrodus’ original house, which is nestled among the vineyards at 4 Briarty Road, Gruyere, 3770 (just off Maddens Lane).
Groups of 6 or more are welcome Monday – Friday by appointment only. Unfortunately we cannot accommodate group bookings on the weekend. Please call 03 5964 9267 or email info@yarrayering.com to book. For more information, please view our cellar door.
