welcome

Steels Creek Estate was established in 1981‚ initially as an interest in the viticultural aspects of grapegrowing. The vineyard is situated in the picturesque Steels Creek Valley (part of the Yarra Valley wine region) with sweeping views towards Mount Slide and the Kinglake National Park. There is an abundance of wildlife‚ contributing to the overall charm of the location. Visitors to the winery are warmly welcomed and can view the operations from the tasting area. Our philosophy of holding back our red vintages, so they express their bottle age characteristics continues. The difference is quite discernible since bottling. Well worth the wait!

We have just released our 2006 Colombard. This unique varietal for the cool climate of the Yarra Valley continues to be a favourite at cellar door and the 2006 vintage will be no exception.
In early May we released our 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2000/01 growing season experienced above average rainfall and this led to a higher yielding crop. The resulting wine is a lighter style than our usual cabernet with softer tannins, lower alcohol and more herbaceous characteristics. This makes it a great choice for casual café style meals and barbecues. See later for our specials on this wine.
Our regular customers agree that the 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon is drinking exceptionally well and is great value at only $20 per bottle.
