Just 50 minutes from Perth, this picture-perfect estate is one of WA’s most awarded destinations, known especially for its Gourmet Traveller Top 100 restaurant that grows most of its produce onsite.
Millbrook is a boutique winery and acclaimed restaurant in the historic town of Jarrahdale in the Perth Hills wine region of Western Australia – 50 minutes south-east of the capital Perth. The winery is located at picturesque Chestnut Farm, nestled among jarrah forests with stunning vistas of the rolling landscape.
The origins of Chestnut Farm date back to the 19th century when the original owner, Joseph Batt, planted an orchard and grapevines in 1865. Batt’s winemaking landed him in the Supreme Court where he was fined for selling wine from the premises without a colonial licence.
Owners Peter and Lee Fogarty set their sights on winemaking, planting vines in 1996 and in 2001 a stunning winery, including a tasting room and restaurant was completed.
The Wines
The 20-acre estate plantings are focused on the Rhône varieties of Shiraz and Viognier. Millbrook also sources parcels of fruit from exceptional sites across Western Australia, working with expert and dedicated growers to create modern and stylish wines that represent authentic and vibrant varietal character.
