Jilly Wines

New England, New South Wales

SUSTAINABLE - MINIMAL INTERVENTION - VEGAN

Jilly Wines is a small-batch, creative winemaking project by Jared Dixon, capturing moments of inspiration and experimentation in every vintage. Handcrafted in Clunes, NSW, Jilly wines are a true expression of time and place, made with a hands-off approach that allows the fruit to shine.

Nicknamed “The Lone Ranger,” Jared pioneers unique varieties from the diverse terroirs of New England, from high-altitude, cool-climate vineyards to the warmer edges of the Tablelands. His experimental vineyard in Clunes is the first of its kind in Northern NSW, continuing the region’s deep but often overlooked winemaking history.

Jilly Wines is committed to sustainability, running an off-grid winery powered by solar energy and composting waste to nourish the vineyard. With wild fermentation, no fining, and minimal sulphur, these wines are vibrant, unfiltered, and full of character—bottled moments that become memories poured.
