Coombe Farm is located just to the north east of Coldstream, some 60 km from the centre of Melbourne, on gently rolling slopes overlooking the Yarra Valley and towards the blue hills of the Great Dividing Range. The first plantings were in 1999 of 14 ha of Pinot Noir under the leadership of Pamela, Lady Vestey, the grand-daughter of Dame Nellie, and her sons Lord Vestey and Mark Vestey.
“Coombe Farm is an emerging Yarra Valley producer with high quality aspirations. Its first releases have been pretty impressive, with tightly focused and finely honed Chardonnay partnered by supple, sappy but deeply flavoured and savoury Pinot Noir.”
Jeremy Oliver, April 2006

“gentle, fine and elegant” (2006 vintage)
“A gentle, fine and elegant cabernet whose dusty aromas of sweet small berries, cherries and fresh cedar/vanilla oak are backed by floral nuances. It’s supple and silky, with lively sweet red and black berry flavours knit with fine-grained oak, finishing with length and harmony.”
