Thousand Candles
Thousand Candles is a premium estate in the heart of the Yarra Valley. Its name comes from a 19th century account by a European settler, who witnessed an ancient indigenous ceremony that granted free passage into the lands around the property to various tribes. Describing the tribesman dramatically holding aloft their firesticks, he remarked that it was as if the ‘twilight of the evening had been interrupted by a thousand candles...’.Viticulturist Stuart Proud works organically and biodynamically (though uncertified) and with as little intervention in the winery as possible.
