Domaine Chandon Yarra Valley

Best yarra valley wineries..

Arguably the best known among premium Yarra Valley wineries is Domaine Chandon Yarra Valley . And there are several reasons for that.

Yarra Valley wineries are many. And quite a few of them are very well known for their wonderful wines and picturesque landscapes. And we visit them frequently on our wine tasting tours of Yarra Valley.

But hardly any other of Yarra Valley wineries with all their fantastic surroundings can compete with  Domaine Chandon   in absolutely breathtaking natural beauty of the valley and mountains view that opens from Domaine Chandon .

It is simply amazing. You must be there to really appreciate it.

Another good reason for being that well known and ever popular is the wine of course! :)  We are talking CHAMPAGNE baby! Who on the wine tasting tour would refuse to taste some pretty good bubbly?

Domaine Chandon belongs to   Moët & Chandon  –  a French champagne house and one of the world’s largest champagne producers and co-owner of the luxury brands  Moët-Hennessy and Louis Vuitton .

You would think that with all this heritage Domaine Chandon  must be making quite an impressive wines and you would be absolutely right. During Three Koalas Yarra Valley Wine Tour you will have an opportunity to taste these wines and see that this statement is not an exaggeration.

Domaine Chandon   does make a wonderful sparkling wines. In our opinion even better than any French champagne we tried in the same price range.

Interestingly enough, since 2008 Domaine Chandon  also makes some very nice still wines as well and naturally, we would suggest you to have sample of them during our wine tasting tour at  Domaine Chandon.

Three Koalas Winery Tasting Tours tries to include Domaine Chandon winery on all our tour itineraries form Melbourne.

A Sparkling Wine Lover’s Guide to Domaine Chandon in the Yarra Valley

Known as one of Australia’s premier wine regions, the Yarra Valley is home to rolling vineyards, charming towns, and acclaimed wineries. For lovers of fine sparkling wine, no Yarra Valley visit is complete without a stop at Domaine Chandon – the premier maker of traditional method bubblies.

In this article, discover why Domaine Chandon is considered one of the Yarra Valley’s top cellar doors and how to plan an amazing experience at this renowned winery. From tastings to dining and vineyard views, read on for an insider’s guide to exploring Chandon’s sparkling wines and hospitality.

An Introduction to Domaine Chandon

Domaine Chandon is the Australian outpost of the legendary French Champagne house Moët & Chandon. It was established in the late 1980s as one of the first Méthode Traditionelle sparkling wine producers outside of Champagne.

Set on over 200 acres along the Yarra River in Coldstream, the striking Chandon winery combines old-world charm with modern architecture. The scenic property features multiple tasting spaces, a lounge bar, restaurant, and of course – world-class vineyards growing traditional Champagne grapes.

Chandon is dedicated to crafting benchmark Australian sparkling wines that express purity of varietal character and regional terroir. Their winemakers have access to top vineyards across Victoria’s coolest regions like the Yarra Valley to make delicate, refined bubblies.

For any lover of fine sparkling wine, Domaine Chandon is a must-visit when touring the Yarra Valley and surrounding wine country. Keep reading for how to plan your tasting experience.

Planning Your Visit to Domaine Chandon

Domaine Chandon is located at 727 Maroondah Hwy, Coldstream VIC 3770. It’s approximately an hour’s drive northeast from Melbourne.

Some tips for planning your visit:

  • Check Opening Hours Online – Hours vary by season, so verify online before going.
  • Book Tastings Ahead – Walk-ins can’t be guaranteed, so book your tasting slots online in advance.
  • Travel By Private or Tour Transport – Chandon offers limited parking, so opt for a wine tour or other transport.
  • Wear Comfortable Shoes – You’ll be walking around the winery, so wear something with good support.
  • Make a Day of It – Allow plenty of time to tour, taste, dine, and soak in vineyard views at your leisure.

With the right planning, you’re sure to have an amazing Chandon experience. Now let’s look at how to maximize your time once there.

Taking a Winery Tour

Chandon offers self-guided tours daily where you can walk their production halls to see how the sparkling wines get made. Download the tour app or pick up a printed guide before starting the tour route. Stops along the way include:

  • Vineyards – Walk amongst the vines used for Chandon’s key grapes like Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Pinot Gris.
  • Barrel Hall – See how wines age pre-blending in French and American oak casks to develop flavor complexity.
  • Disgorging and Dosage – Learn how yeast sediment is removed from the bottles and dosage sugar added before corking.
  • Tank Room – View the massive stainless steel tanks where base wines are fermented and blended.

The self-guided tour takes around 45 minutes and provides an insightful overview into Chandon’s traditional method winemaking. Don’t miss it!

Tasting the Bubbles at the Cellar Door

Of course, the highlight of any Domaine Chandon visit is tasting their acclaimed sparkling wines!

The best ways to taste at Chandon include:

  • Guided Flight – Try a curated tasting flight of 3-5 bubblies talking through each with an expert host.
  • Lounge Bar – Enjoy Chandon bubbles by the glass in a more casual setting with small plates.
  • Tasting Paddle – Create your own custom paddle comparing several different Chandon sparkling and still wine styles.
  • Wine and Cheese – Pair your wines with artisanal cheeses for an indulgent tasting experience.

Be sure to taste across Chandon’s portfolio – from dry styles like their signature Brut to sweeter wines like the Blanc de Blancs. Tasting at the source is truly the best way to experience these benchmark Aussie bubblies.

Pairing Food and Wine at The Barrel Hall

After all that tasting, you’ll need some food – and Domaine Chandon’s onsite Barrel Hall restaurant offers the perfect solution.

Here are some tips for the ultimate food and wine experience:

  • Match Chandon Bubbles – Let the expert staff suggest ideal pairings with Chandon wines to complement your dishes.
  • Share Dishes – Crafted in a share-style, the menu features house-made artisanal charcuterie, cheeses, seafood, salads and more.
  • Choose a Table with a View – Request seating on the outdoor terrace to soak up views of the vineyard and gardens.
  • Make Reservations – The restaurant is very popular, so book your table well in advance online.

With its seasonal, locally-driven menu perfectly pairing with a glass of Chandon, The Barrel Hall is a must for gourmet wining and dining in the Yarra Valley.

More Ways to Immerse Yourself at Domaine Chandon

In addition to the above essential experiences, Chandon offers some other fun ways to further enjoy the estate:

  • Join the Wine Club – Become a member to receive Chandon wines, access to special events, discounts and other perks.
  • Check Event Calendar – Throughout the year Chandon hosts concerts, movie nights, yoga events and more on their scenic grounds.
  • Hire a Private Space – Book a private lounge, dining space or the entire Barrel Hall for groups or special events like weddings.
