We had the most wonderful afternoon at Yarran Winery! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a stunning view of the lush, rolling vineyards. Katie, our host, was incredibly attentive and provided insightful knowledge not only about the winery’s wines but also about the local area. Her passion for the region and its offerings made the experience even more enjoyable.
The wines were truly exceptional—each one more impressive than the last. Whether you're a seasoned connoisseur or simply someone who appreciates a good glass, Yarran's selection is sure to impress. It was the perfect way to escape the 38-degree heat in Griffith, as we relaxed in the cool, air-conditioned room, savouring each pour. The entire experience left us feeling completely refreshed and at ease.
If you’re visiting the area, Yarran Winery is an absolute must-visit. The combination of great wines, knowledgeable staff, and breathtaking scenery makes it an unforgettable experience. Highly...
Read moreWe first discovered Yarran Wines many years ago when I heard someone in the area was producing a cracking good Petit Verdot. Took some mates out there for some wine tasting and we all quickly learned the entire range is well worth sampling.
The cellar door has arguably the best ambience of all those in the Griffith area, boasting a stunning view of the Cocoparra Range beyond the vineyards, and the owners and staff have always been welcoming, professional hosts who really know their stuff.
More recently, they have launched Club Yarran, which, unlike many other wineries, has no obligatory subscription or sign up fees and offers free delivery. This is a handy way for regular customers to keep informed about specials for members, new releases and so on.
Many glasses of red from the Yarran range provided fuel to help me complete my forthcoming novel, which includes a few nods to my favourite local drop, as these wines have become a...
Read moreA couple of days in Griffith after the Mundi Mundi music festival, my wife Karin and I were keen to sample the local wines Got a hot tip about Yarran from another larger winery. It's a relatively small winery, but highly recommended. Rocked up, unannounced, and Katie made us welcome and fitted us into some tasting space. Then the good stuff began. We worked our way through a few of the white varietals (hey, try the montepulciano rose!) and then into my favourites, the reds. Standout, Block Series Shiraz! And their nectar Botrytis Semillon stands with the best in the field including De Bortoli's Noble! It's so pleasing to find an unassuming gem - then you notice James Haliday's poster on the way out (2021 dark horse winery of the year). Oh well. By the way, bought a few cases, as you do. Well...
