Domaine Chandon: Traditional Method Sparkling Wines

Domaine Chandon specializes in crafting traditional method sparkling wines in the picturesque Yarra Valley, Australia. Drawing on its rich French heritage, the winery offers a diverse range of premium sparkling wine styles that reflect the unique terroir of the region.

About the Founder

Founded in 1959 by Robert-Jean de Vogüé, Domaine Chandon began its journey by collaborating with local winemakers in Argentina, applying Champagne techniques to local grape varieties. This marked the beginning of a series of successful ventures. In 1973, de Vogüé and Californian entrepreneur John Wright expanded their vision to Napa Valley, creating exceptional wines with a distinct Californian flair. In the mid-1980s, a talented team from Chandon discovered the ideal conditions at Green Point, an old dairy farm in Victoria’s Yarra Valley. The region's cool climate and fertile soil provided the perfect environment for sparkling wine production. Since 1986, Domaine Chandon has been a leading producer of méthode traditionnelle wines in Australia, known for their signature style.

Vineyard and Grape Varieties

Domaine Chandon sources its grapes from cool-climate vineyards across Victoria, including three key sites in the Yarra Valley, Strathbogie Ranges, and Whitlands Plateau. The primary grape varieties cultivated here are Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Meunier, which are essential for producing high-quality sparkling wines. The winery also offers stunning views of the Yarra Valley, complemented by a variety of tasting and dining experiences for visitors.

One of three MCH wineries in Australia. Wine lovers and non-wine lovers alike should visit. A plantation and factory. It has a sales area, a bar, and a museum exhibition.

We booked lunch including half a glass with every dish. Food was awesome as well as the wonderful sparkling wines (especially the orange spritz one). So was the atmosphere and the beautiful landscapes of the estate. Highly recommend

Very nice fresh meats, great sparkling wine. We just walked in, so they accommodated us, and we're very nice. The winery is a beautiful place to soak up the sun.

A very beautiful winery, although quite commercial. Have a meal here, drink some wine and have a great time. Don't forget to order the fries at the restaurant here, they are so delicious haha.

It’s not great. It’s in a lovely impressive setting. Food was phenomenal, but that’s what you expect with that price tag. Wines and champagne was enjoyable and great experience. Service is one level better than McDonald’s but that’s hospitality in Australia. Always under trained staff and under serviced businesses. Nothing different here. We were basically rushed to get the F out as they wanted to close on the minute.
