Yering Station was established in 1838 by the pioneering Ryrie brothers who adopted the Aboriginal name “Yering” for their new station. In 1996 the Rathbone family purchased the property drawn to its natural beauty, history and the great promise of its wines.

The Yarra Valley is considered Australia’s most prominent cool climate region, revered for producing exceptional Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The variable and long growing seasons experienced in the Yarra Valley encourages distinctive varietal flavour and complex structure, hallmarks of our regionally expressive Yering Station wines.

Our vineyards are made up of five Yarra Valley sites across the Yarra Glen and Coldstream subregions.

Each site has subtle changes in soil, aspect and elevation which enable us to make the most of each vintage’s climatic differences. At Yering Station, soils, canopies and yields are carefully managed to ensure the highest quality fruit makes it to our winery, and then to your bottle.

Each vintage, we employ the use of precision viticulture to map and isolate the finest parcels from the best blocks and the best rows. Such practices include cutting-edge soil and canopy mapping technology.

By using precision viticulture, we’re able to highlight immaculate parcels and honour them with integrity.

The Rathbone family’s vision for the property has led to major accomplishments including winning the ‘International Winemaker of the Year’ at the highly established International Wine and Spirit Competition, London 2004; and the property being inducted into the Australian Tourism Awards ‘Hall of Fame’ in 2006.
