Giant Steps was founded in 1997 by wine industry pioneer Phil Sexton who arrived in the Yarra Valley to find the ideal site to produce Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Turns out, there was more than one. Today, Giant Steps is led by Head of Winemaking and Viticulture, Melanie Chester, who works with six big personality vineyard sites in the Valley (and one in Tasmania) to produce wines that showcase the region’s unique expression.
