Solitude Estate Tibooburra Vineyard Aerial View

AS OLD AS THE HILLS

The name Solitude Estate comes from the vast grazing run that covered some of the remote expanses of the upper Yarra Valley in the mid-1800s.

Our family owned and run vineyard is situated on a series of ridges and slopes at Yellingbo, on one of the last remaining tracts of the original Solitude.

CHARACTER

Solitude Estate wines typically show lively primary fruit characters and good structure built on natural acid and careful selection of French oak. Our all-encompassing goal is for these wines to reflect the unique terroir of our vineyard.

ENVIRONMENT

The vineyard is situated on elevated ridges in view of the Dandenongs and the Great Divide. It is encircled by a series of nature conservation reserves which protect rare and endangered species.

ORIGINS

Did you know that some of our wines are made from clones that originate from the foothills of the Andes in Argentina (the Mendoza Chardonnay clone) and Burgundy in France (the Abel and BU115 Pinot Noir clones).

PAIR

Try our Shiraz with a spicy pizza or Scotch fillet. What about pairing our Pinot Noir with Christmas ham or antipasto, or our Chardonnay with steamed fish or roast chicken.

"Our aim is to work closely with nature, and to produce premium wines in small batches with minimal intervention to preserve their natural character."
