Winemaking Philosophy

The Yabby Lake winemaking philosophy allows the inherent potential of each parcel of fruit to be realised. It is the careful and considered work in the vineyard from pruning to picking that determines the true foundation and character of each wine.

Then, in the winery, each parcel is handled gently and thoughtfully to ensure winemaking techniques only enhance the potential quality of the resulting wine.

The Yabby Lake team has an uncompromising commitment to producing the highest quality wines. Each year, less than 30% of the fruit from the Yabby Lake Vineyard is classified for our single vineyard wines.

We've been making single vineyard chardonnay and pinot noir from this site since 2002, and both wines have rapidly gained a reputation for excellence.
