An Introduction to Yering Station
With vines first planted in 1838, Yering Station is proudly Victoria’s first vineyard. Located in the Yarra Valley in Victoria, Australia – Yering Station has a long history of producing world-class cool climate wines.
Established in 1838 by the Ryrie brothers, Yering Station was originally a small vineyard and cattle farm. Changing hands between families throughout the centuries that followed, the Rathbone family ultimately purchased the estate in 1996 and have since expanded it into a landmark producer and destination.
Since the beginning, our ambition has always been to simply make great wine. We believe that each great wine should express their individual epitome of time, place and effort. In the vineyards, we employ the use of cutting-edge precision viticulture techniques, while balancing the entire process by the human sense of taste. In the winery, we manage a careful balance of tradition and innovation; employing age-old techniques supported by modern advances, all of which culminate to highlight our distinctive cool climate hallmarks.
Sustainably minded, our dedication to our land is unerring. Our sustainability commitments include a 100% solar powered winery, drip irrigation in our vineyards and cultivating cover crops in our mid-rows.
Our self-titled Yering Station collection of wines captures an authentic expression of the Yarra Valley, guided by respect for site, season and varietal integrity. Thoughtful vineyard selection and precise winemaking deliver wines of balance, purity and texture, allowing each variety to speak clearly of its origin. Refined yet approachable, these wines reflect the region’s cool-climate strengths and Yering Station’s commitment to crafting elegant wines with a strong sense of place.
We acknowledge that we gather on the unceded lands of the Woi Wurrung people here on beautiful Wurundjeri country, where the mighty Birrarung flows and the Ngurraks sing. We pay our respects to elders past, present and emerging as we today place footsteps upon footsteps of those made by thousands of generations of Aboriginal people who have come before us. We also pay respect to the non-indigenous brothers and sisters who gather here today, as we are all on the journey of reconciliation. We must acknowledge the past and work together in the present, so that we can move forward as a united nation.
