It has been quite some time since we hosted a Yalumba tasting – in fact, the first since 2020, when Jess Hill-Smith was here a matter of days prior to the first Covid Lockdown. This year Yalumba celebrates its 175th anniversary, and to mark this special occasion we have for the first time Yalumba’s Louisa Rose.
Although still a winemaker at Yalumba, in 2023, Louisa retired as Head of Winemaking and took on a new role of Head of Sustainability and Brand Ambassador for the winery. Louisa has been at Yalumba since 1992 and has carved a reputation as one of the world’s leading winemakers and innovators.
Tonight, Louisa will share her passion for Yalumba and its wines, focusing on Viognier, Grenache, Cabernet and Shiraz.
