Wineries

Victoria’s wine industry can be traced to a vineyard at Yering Station in 1838, with viticulture expanding rapidly throughout the 1860s and 1870s. Today, the Yarra Valley boasts 300 vineyards and 160 wineries, with the region’s cooler climate lending itself to the production of chardonnay, cabernet sauvignon, shiraz and pinot noir. Wineries in the region include Domaine Chandon, De Bortoli, Oakridge and Yering Station.
