The Yarra Valley, located just east of Melbourne and framed by the Dandenong Ranges, is one of Victoria’s most picturesque regions. Its landscape of rolling hills, farmland, orchards, and vineyards is complemented by boutique accommodation and fine dining, making it a destination of natural beauty and culinary excellence.
Renowned as Victoria’s premier wine region, the Yarra Valley is home to more than 80 wineries, ranging from iconic producers to historic estates. Among them is Yering Station, the state’s oldest vineyard, first planted in 1838. The area flourished in the late 19th century, declined during the economic depression of the 1930s, and was revitalized in the late 1960s, growing ever since into a thriving hub of world-class wine.
Epicurean Food and Wine Tours offer an exclusive experience that brings together three of the Yarra Valley’s most celebrated estates: Chandon, Soumah’s Ai Fiori Trattoria, and De Bortoli. This curated journey showcases the very best of the region’s wine, food, and hospitality, with a 10:00 am pick-up from the city and a 5:30 pm return.
At Chandon, guests enjoy a premium guided tasting of six sparkling wines, crafted in the traditional méthode. Alongside its acclaimed wines, the estate boasts panoramic views of the Yarra Ranges, a tasting bar, restaurant, and boutique—making it one of the region’s most impressive stops.
