Soumah of Yarra Valley, nestled in the dress circle of the Warramate foothills of Gruyere, is a testament to the vision of creating wines with the charm of northern Italy but rooted in the profound viticultural heritage of the Yarra Valley. Since its establishment, Soumah has garnered acclaim for its distinctive approach to winemaking, inspired by the styles of northern Italy and eastern France, focusing on varieties such as Savarro, Pinot Grigio, Nebbiolo, Barbera, as well as Chardonnay, Shiraz, and Viognier, among others. This dedication to capturing the essence of both the varietal and the terroir has resulted in award-winning wines that embody the unique character of Soumah's meticulously managed vineyard.

This 'supervised control' philosophy ensures that Soumah's wines are not only a reflection of their specific site but also of a commitment to environmental stewardship and innovation.
