Killiecrankie Wines is the venture of experienced viticulturist and winemaker John Monteath.
With over 20 years working in vineyards and wineries, John has attained a vast range of experience in some of the top end wine producing businesses in the Bendigo and Heathcote wine regions.
Grapes are sourced from a limited number of meticulously tended vineyards in the local area.
The wines are made in the true garagiste style with hand-plunged ferments, basket pressing and minimal intervention. The resultant wines are elegantly proportioned with fine texture and balance.
Since the first wines made in 2005, Killiecrankie wines have become much sought after for their appeal and drinkability. Their reputation for quality has been recognised with numerous wine show trophies awarded over the subsequent years.

Exciting times ahead
John is in the process of moving the winery to a new location
A venue which will feature a vineyard, a cellar door open every weekend and a perfect venue for functions either outdoors or indoors.

Cellar door at Ravenswood is now closed. A new cellar door location is coming soon.
