At Chillout Travel, we are thrilled to now be visiting Soumah on our public Yarra Valley Winery Tour! Soumah is one of the Yarra Valley’s true hidden gems and is tucked away down a small country road.

The name Soumah is an acronym which means South of the Maroondah (Highway) and the winery is the initiative of long-term hospitality worker Brett Butcher.

With a five-star rating by the prestigious wine writer James Halliday, Soumah is one of Australia’s highest rated wineries, and we absolutely love their range.

We can’t wait to take you there!
