The man. The myth. The one-day Legend. Yarra Valley is known for pumping out scores of high quality chardonnay and pinot noir (among other varieties), and Mac Forbes is settled there making wines true to their origin, unmanipulated, and pure. Mac grew up in the Yarra Valley before heading to Europe in the 90s to bounce around learning how to make different styles of wine and working in the overall Industry. He returned to Yarra Valley and set out to learn more about this land he grew up on, and just what kinds of wine the area could produce. Mac makes low-intervention juice that are nuanced and balanced, but his real work is done in the vineyard, and we sometimes think he likes farming more than making wine.
