The Yarra Valley gave rise to Victorian viticulture back in 1838, when the first vines were planted. It surged through the 1860s and 1870s until the 1930s, when the economic depression saw production cease. This lull lasted until the late 1960s, where it was replanted and has been going strong ever since.

Yarra Valley Water is the largest of Melbourne's three water corporations, based in Melbourne's east.
