Seven Yarra Valley winemakers come together for a guided tasting and conversation about cool-climate Cabernet:

Sarah Crowe, Yarra Yering
Sandra de Pury, Yeringberg, where her family has grown and made wine for four generations
Rohan Smith, Chief Winemaker, Medhurst
Peter Shone, Winemaker and Production Manager, Levantine Hill
Tim Dexter, Senior Winemaker, Oakridge
Ben Portet, Executive Winemaker, Dominique Portet
Bruce Lang, Finestra, whose vineyard sits next door to Yeringberg

Guests taste a Cabernet from each winemaker and hear first-hand what the Yarra Valley's climate gives the variety, how they grow and make it, and where it is heading. Cabernet in Conversation is ticketed separately from the dinner.

The masterclass will be hosted by Ed Merrison, a British-born journalist turned wine educator who has made Melbourne his home for more than 20 years. Before turning to wine full-time, Ed reported for Sky News, Bloomberg, The Guardian and the Herald Sun. He was named Australia's top-performing WSET Diploma graduate in 2017, and today writes Vininspo!, a newsletter about the people, places and stories behind wine. Ed will guide the conversation, drawing out each winemaker's take on what makes Yarra Valley Cabernet distinctive.
