Nestled in the scenic Yarra Valley, Coombe Yarra Valley stands as a testament to both history and sophistication, once graced by the presence of legendary soprano Dame Nellie Melba and now cherished by her descendants, the Vestey family. Since its establishment in 1998, the estate’s vineyards have flourished, specialising in cool-climate varietals such as Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. From the fragrant Pinot Gris to the bold Shiraz and the classic Sparkling Blanc de Blancs, Coombe’s wines showcase the region’s terroir and craftsmanship, inviting guests to indulge in tastings at the Cellar Door.

Behind the majestic hedge of Melba’s Coombe Cottage property in Coldstream awaits a world of discovery. Explore seven acres of meticulously landscaped gardens, dine in the historic motor house turned restaurant under the culinary guidance of Executive Chef Neil Cunningham, and immerse yourself in the legend of Dame Nellie Melba through gallery tours and guided house and garden explorations.

Whether for weddings, private events, or leisurely lunches, Coombe Yarra Valley offers a refined setting against the backdrop of Victoria’s oldest swimming pool and the lush surroundings of the Coombe cottage garden avenue.
