Join us by the fire as we look at these evocative wines over the ages. Reminisce about past vintages and the stories these wines unfold.
The Museum Collection
Twenty years ago our winemaking team began putting away its flagship wines with the intention for the bottles to be enjoyed at a later date. It was envisioned that beautifully aged wines, released every year, would promote the reputation of surviving heirloom vineyards and consistently show the skilled craftsmanship behind our Yalumba collection.
