ABOUT THE WINERY:

Wilimee is a small family-run vineyard in the Macedon Ranges.

Our philosophy is simple: we make great wine.

At an altitude of 600m, the cool climate is perfect for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

We hand pick the grapes that we grow on rare Cambrian soil, some of the oldest in Australia. The vineyard is next to a sacred quarry, once mined for its greenstone, which was used to make stone axes by the Wurundjeri people. Wilimee Moor-ing means 'Place of Stone Axe'.

Our vines were planted in 1982, making them some of the oldest in the Macedon Ranges.
