ABOUT
‘Moments bottled become memories poured.’
A story of small-batch, seasonal and creative winemaking, where each vintage is the product of a time and place, and a thought, or feeling pursued: a spirited endeavour that bottles a time of inspiration and experimentation; a moment captured to never be reproduced in the same way, again. An extension of the mind and heart of Jared Dixon, Jilly Wines are hand-made in Clunes, New South Wales, to inspire, celebrate, and enjoy.
We believe in a philosophy that wine should be representative of time and place - a moment bottled - and so we produce minimal intervention, natural wines, utilising natural yeasts with no fining, and zero additives aside from a small amount of sulphur before going to bottle.
