Sutherland Estate is a boutique, family-owned winery set on the elevated slopes of Daniel’s Hill in the Yarra Valley. Known for its cool-climate wines, the estate produces elegant and expressive varieties, including Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and a rare Tempranillo, which is not commonly found in the region. The vineyard’s high-altitude position contributes to the freshness and complexity of its wines, making them distinctive within the Yarra Valley.
The estate's winemaking philosophy focuses on showcasing the region’s unique terroir while maintaining a hands-on, small-batch approach. Whether through its refined white wines or its well-structured reds, Sutherland Estate continues to craft wines that are a true reflection of their site, backed by a strong commitment to quality and sustainability.
The cellar door at Sutherland Estate is a striking space, designed to take full advantage of its elevated position. With enormous floor-to-ceiling windows and a soaring 13-metre ceiling, guests can enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the vineyard, Yarra Valley, and distant mountain ranges. The multi-level timber deck provides a perfect setting for outdoor tastings, while the cosy indoor space, complete with an open fire, offers a welcoming retreat during cooler months.
Visitors can taste the full range of estate wines at the bar, or settle in with a glass of wine and a cheese board at a barrel table. The atmosphere is relaxed yet refined, making it an ideal spot to unwind while soaking in the natural beauty of the Yarra Valley.
