Brown Brothers-USE BROWN BROTHERS MILAWA

Draws upon a considerable number of vineyards spread throughout a range of site climates, ranging from very warm to very cool. A relatively recent expansion into Heathcote has added significantly to its armoury. It is known for the diversity of varieties with which it works, and the wines represent good value for money. Deservedly one of the most successful family wineries its cellar door receives the greatest number of visitors in Australia. In 2010 Brown Brothers took a momentous step, acquiring Tasmanias Tamar Ridge for $32.5 million. It is intended that there will be no changes to Tamar Ridge until all of the opportunities and possible synergies have been carefully considered. An onsite airstrip is an (unusual) extra.
