YEATES Wines

Sandy and Victoria Yeates bought this 20-hectare Mudgee vineyard in 2009 when Foster's sold it by tender during the wine glut. The Shiraz vines date to 1968—dry-grown, no irrigation—and still produce the fruit that made Rosemount's Mountain Blue one of Australia's most awarded reds. The cellar door, run largely by the Yeates children, opened in 2020.
