我们的故事
Yabby Lake 葡萄园由 Kirby 家族于 1998 年在半岛北部的 Tuerong 建立。在过去的十年里，该葡萄园因单一葡萄园霞多丽和黑皮诺的纯度和品质而享有盛誉。

在酿酒师汤姆·卡森 (Tom Carson) 的带领下，我们的理念是酿造能够体现我们的产地及其种植季节的葡萄酒。 葡萄园中的关注和照顾对于实现这种表达最为关键。

近年来，我们的远见和奉献精神赢得了一些令人兴奋的荣誉，包括我们创造历史的 Block 1 黑皮诺 - 这是第一个赢得备受尊崇的吉米·沃森奖杯 (Jimmy Watson Trophy) 的黑皮诺，该奖项已有 52 年历史。 

我们的历史
经过 20 世纪 90 年代中期对莫宁顿半岛的长期搜寻后，柯比家族在位于半岛北部的图隆 (Tuerong) 找到了理想的一块土地。经过彻底的土壤调查以及对这个特殊地点的仔细测绘和规划，葡萄园于 1998 年种植，这是在创始人葡萄栽培师基思·哈里斯 (Keith Harris) 的监督下完成的。

我们的理念 - “时间和地点”
在Yabby Lake，我们专注于酿造高纯度的葡萄酒，不仅可以清楚地了解它们的产地，还可以了解它们的种植季节。 葡萄园中的关注和照顾对于实现这种表达最为关键。

我们的葡萄园由勤奋的葡萄园团队负责工作和照料，现在由葡萄栽培师托马斯·舒尔茨 (Thomas Schulz) 管理。托马斯和他的团队延续了 20 年的传统，采取细致的措施来保持葡萄园的最佳状态，在冬季手工修剪每一根葡萄藤，并在夏季手工采摘它们结出的果实。 

托马斯与酿酒师汤姆合作，追随创始人基思·哈里斯和马丁·桑普森的脚步，他的知识和对这个地点的奉献精神对于让这个特殊的葡萄园发挥其潜力至关重要。

OUR STORY
Yabby Lake Vineyard was established by the Kirby family in 1998, in Tuerong, which is located in the northern part of the peninsula.  Over the past decade, the vineyard has built a reputation for single vineyard chardonnay and pinot noir of great purity and character.

Led by winemaker Tom Carson, our philosophy is to craft wines that speak of our site and the season in which they were grown.  It’s the attention and care in the vineyard that is most critical to allowing this expression.

Our vision and dedication has lead to some exciting accolades in recent years, including our history-making Block 1 Pinot Noir - which was the first pinot noir ever to win the revered Jimmy Watson Trophy, after 52 years of the award. 

OUR HISTORY
After a long search of the Mornington Peninsula during the mid-1990’s, the Kirby family found the ideal parcel of land in Tuerong, located in the north of the peninsula. After thorough soil surveys, and careful mapping and planning of this special site, the vineyard was planted in 1998, a feat overseen by founding viticulturist Keith Harris.

OUR PHILOSOPHY - 'TIME AND PLACE'
At Yabby Lake, we’re focused on crafting wines of great purity, that provide a clear insight into not only where they come from, but also the season they were grown.  It’s the attention and care in the vineyard that is most critical to allowing this expression.

Our vineyard is worked and cared for by our diligent vineyard team, managed now by viticulturist, Thomas Schulz. Continuing a 20-year legacy, Thomas and his team take meticulous measures to keep the vineyard at its finest, hand pruning each and every vine during winter, and handpicking the fruit they bear come harvest in the summer. 

Working with winemaker Tom, and following in the footsteps of founding viticulturists Keith Harris and Martin Sampson, Thomas's knowledge and dedication to this site are critical to allowing the special vineyard to reach its potential
