About wine producing region Yarra Valley in Australia

Best wine supplier in Philippines discusses wine related topics

The Yarra Valley was Victoria’s first wine growing district – with a history stretching back over 160 years. Vines were first planted in 1838, and viticulture spread rapidly through the 1860s and 1870s. However, increased demand for fortified wine saw Yarra Valley wine production cease in 1921.
Replanting began in the late 1960s and by the early 1990s, the area under vine passed the high point of the 19th century. The Yarra Valley is now recognised as one of Australia’s foremost cool climate producers, capable of making classic styles from a wide range of varieties.
It is impossible to favour a single variety as the star performer – since the Yarra Valley offers: sparkling wine including those made in partnership with French Champagne houses; fine Chardonnay; complex Pinot Noir; world class Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz.
The history of the Yarra Valley is documented in great detail in the book “From Jolimont to Yering” by Raymond Henderson. Click here if you could like to obtain a copy.
