Description
Lillypilly estate has won over 1000 awards, and this passion for wine continues to enable the estate to capture the Riverina region's unique climate and flavours in a bottle.
THE FAMILY
Lillypilly Estate was established in Leeton in southern New South Wales in 1972. The Fiumara family began their life in Australia in the 1950's, growing and selling fresh fruit and vegetables. Seven brothers worked with their father and mother to build a strong family business. Robert Fiumara, the sixth son, developed a love of winemaking, inspired by his father Pasquale and eldest brother Domenic, and went on to graduate from University. Robert's philosophy is to develop a range of high quality wines and to continue the tradition of the family business. In 1982, Robert created his first wine and that year’s Tramillon, won a Trophy and Gold at the 1983 Royal Sydney Wine Show with this unique blend.
