Soumah Wines - Yarra Valley Winery, Cellar Door & Restaurant

GREAT WINE IS MADE IN THE VINEYARD

Soumah of Yarra Valley set out to select an exact location that delivered every advantage of a cool climate, undulating topography and ancient soils. We then wanted to bring some focus to our endeavour. After being resident overseas for many years, we found the elegance and honesty of northern Italian wines and food is what inspires us.

Soumah of Yarra Valley

We grow varieties you would expect to find in the Yarra Valley, such as Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, as well as northern Italian varieties and styles including Brachetto, Nebbiolo, Marzemino, Savarro and Pinot Grigio. We endeavour to search for native northern Italian vines to plant at Soumah to continue the quest to build a little bit of Italy in the Yarra Valley.

Only an hour drive from Melbourne, taste our award-winning wines at our cellar door and dine at our restaurant, Trattoria d’Soumah, while taking in the view. For something more exclusive, book a private tutored tasting in our Premium Wine Room or indulge in an extended stay at Ville d’Soumah, a spacious country-style property located in our vineyard.

MORE ABOUT US

Discover Soumah Wines

The Yarra Valley cool climate focus allows SOUMAH to specialise in wine styles and varieties typical of northern Italy as well as south-eastern France. Our Hexham vineyard on the Warramate foothills is the mainstay of production, although we do look for small parcels of premium fruit from other vineyards to bring additional Single Vineyard wines to the market. Our most awarded wines are Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, with recent recognition for our Viognier and Syrah as well as a passion for northern Italian varieties of Nebbiolo, Brachetto, Pinot Grigio and Savarro (or Savagnin).

SOUMAH is proudly a 5-Star Winery according to Halliday Wine Companion.

2016 Single Vineyard Chardonnay: Attractively savoury aroma, melon and straw, dusty oak, toast and honey nuances. Then the palate offers rich fruit, soft texture, with generosity and balance. 93 points.
GT Wine
It’s an austere style. Minimalist. It’s highly enclosed and reductive with pure grapefruit, steel and subtle lactose/woodsmoke characters showing the barest of glimpses. It’s white wine as origami, its arms and legs folded in on themselves. It’s either too clever by halves or highly sophisticated, you have to sit with it and decide for yourself. I’m sitting on the fence a little.

SOUMAH 2016 Single Vineyard Chardonnay: Light and delicate, pure and refreshing, this Yarra Valley Chardonnay feels racy and brisk. It is a cool glass of grapefruit-like zestiness with a kiss of nougat oak. Perfect to accompany seafood dishes, Asian spice and good times.
