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 cold 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 by the Wurundjeri people. Read more
Uniquely we mature our Pinot Noir for 5 years underwater.
We are winemaker Ben Ranken and interior architect Sally Richardson. We moved to beautiful Wilimee in the Macedon Ranges in 2013, days before our second daughter was born.
Country kids ourselves, we feel so fortunate to be back on the land, raising our children with their toes in the soil.
It’s a simple life we’re after: home-grown veges, wholefoods and Sunday walks through the bush.
Our natural approach, combined with our years of experience and the unique geological footprint of our land, has resulted in great wine that we are so proud of. We look forward to sharing it with you. Read more
