Yarra Yering - a Cult Australian Classic

Established in 1969 by Dr Bailey Carrodus, Yarra Yering is one of the oldest producers in the Yarra Valley. Dr Carrodus was the first to thoroughly explore the potential for viticulture in the Yarra Valley wine region. 

A science professor at Melbourne University, he also held a degree in viticulture. During this time, he began the search for a vineyard site on which to produce wine in the style he had grown to love during his travels in Europe. His search brought him to Victoria’s Yarra Valley.

Legend has it that his students in the botany department made many field trips into Yarra Yalley studying its flora, topography and soils. He found his perfect site at the foot of the Warramate Hills and in 1969 began planting.

The gentle slope with its northerly aspect and deep grey silty loam shot through with bands of gravel fulfilled all of his requirements. Good drainage, all day exposure to the warm sun, and enough elevation from the valley floor to avoid the spring frosts.

He named his vineyard Yarra Yering and in 1973 produced his first vintage of Dry Red Wine No.1, a Bordeaux inspired blend and Dry Red Wine No.2, a northern Rhone blend.

Yarra Yering quickly gained an international reputation for quality and individuality and for the next 35 years Dr Carrodus made his wines to great critical and commercial success.
