With a rich history stretching back to the first settlers, the Yarra Valley is not only one of Australia's oldest wine producing regions, but also one of the most diverse, containing large commercial enterprises and small boutique producers. Less than an hour's drive east of Melbourne, the Yarra Valley is home to over 40 wineries and is best known for its success with pinot noir, fine chardonnays and also cabernet sauvignon and shiraz varietals.
The Yarra Valley offers a unique food and wine experience, with many wineries specializing in the foods of the region at the cellar door and adjacent restaurants. Visit De Bortoli Winery, Australia's largest third generation family owned winery, taste at the cellar door of TarraWarra Estate and visit the stunning Museum of Art. Wander through the old winery building at Yering Station Winery, home of the first-planted Victorian vines to visit the Produce Store and Art Gallery. Experience gastronomic fine dining in the 5-star award-winning Eleonore's Restaurant at Chateau Yering Historic House Hotel, a member of Relais and Chateaux.
