Yalumba
The Yalumba Wine Company, Australia’s oldest family-owned winery, is owned and operated by the Hill-Smith family in the Barossa Valley, home to some of the world’s oldest vines. Founded in 1849 by British brewer Samuel Smith, who named it ‘Yalumba’ meaning ‘all the land around,’ the winery now owns over 1000 acres of vineyards across the Barossa, Clare, and Eden valleys, as well as Coonawarra, and sources grapes from long-term growers.
Yalumba practices hands-on winemaking, with on-site master coopers crafting oak barrels and a vine nursery propagating varieties. They produce wines at all price levels, from entry-level to premium labels like Signature and The Menzies along with everyday classics like our Society’s own label Australian chardonnay and cabernet sauvignon.
Under fifth-generation Robert Hill-Smith, Yalumba has innovated into the 21st century, maintaining its reputation for quality, authenticity, and integrity. Robert pioneered Viognier in Australia, establishing Yalumba as a distinguished producer of this grape globally.
