Yarra Valley Wines | Prices, Types & Reviews
Written By: Brian Freedman on Wednesday, January 24, 2007 The Yarra Valley is found in Victoria, one of the most important wine states in all of Australia. Indeed, this region near Melbourne is home to some of the most charming wines on the continent, including Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, classic varieties particularly well-suited to this cool region. But just because the climate is on the cool side does not mean that all the wines are vinified in the Burgundian style. Quite the contrary, in fact: Cabernet Sauvignon and the ubiquitous Shiraz are just as noteworthy in the Yarra Valley, demonstrating once again the supreme versatility of Australia’s grape growers and winemakers.
