Driven Indulgence wine tour guests discover their favorite wines in hidden spots in the Yarra Valley



Olivia, Sarah, Ally, Scott, Peter and Richard, 'sux' wine loving foodies, Sydney siders flew down for a whirl-wind tour of the Yarra Valley, tasting their way through vintages reserved only for those who work hard to seek them out. On a research mission for their private cellars and restaurant wine lists, the Yarra Valley wines from Yering Stations cellars, Yarra Yering, Yileena Park and Yarraloch went home to find or continue a following in Sydney. 
Yes that is sux I said, I think I have turned a little kiwi after spending all day with six New Zealanders all suppin and sputtin! Lets see what they loved.

 

 




 

Ally found the '06 Agincourt to her liking and the Dry Red No.1 was a bit of a smash with the crack tasting team as was the '01 Underhill Shiraz. Yarra Yering.

 

Stephanie's Dream named after Steven's daughter at Yarraloch was enjoyed with lunch overlooking the valley and hills towards Healesville. A private tasting of Yarralochs wines was met with plenty of ohhs and ahhhs.
