Wilimee is one of the older vineyards in the Macedon Ranges and has been rejuvenated by Ben and Sally Ranken. There is unrelenting focus in the vineyard and Ben is also a talented winemaker who has produced wines locally and internationally to much acclaim.

2020 wasn't an easy year for grape growing, however Wilimee have produced a wine of great contemplation. It is etched with savoury and mineral notes, bright red cherry fruit takes on a more earthen disposition with a fine yet textural backdrop of tannin that is lifted by oak induced spice.

Stylistically more than a nod to Burgundy at a much better price point.
