In 1996, the Schwaiger family established the Yarrawood Estate. Now in the 2nd generation of the family, Tim Schwaiger heads the company as Managing Director.
Situated on the Yarra Valley’s floor, Yarrawood Estate is 150 acres in size. There is a strong company focus on estate grown, single vineyard wines, that are truly representative of the premier cool climate growing region that is the Yarra Valley.
While emphasis is placed on the regional backbone varietals of chardonnay and pinot noir, Yarrawood Estate has also achieved great success with other varietals, including quality shiraz (Winner - 2010 International Cool Climate Wine Show and Gold Medal – 2013 National Cool Climate Wine Show), botrytis riesling (Trophy - 2011 Yarra Valley Wine Show), sauvignon blanc and cabernet sauvignon.
Australian family owned and operated, Yarrawood continually strives to build on prior vintages to over deliver on quality and maintain super competitive pricing to the wine lovers of Australia.
