Welcome to Brown Brothers

Brown Brothers is one of Australia’s leading family-owned wine brands celebrating 130 years in 2019. We pride ourselves on our traditions; however we are not a traditional wine company. We are a fourth-generation family steeped in our unique heritage, with a history of innovation that inspires our future direction.

The Brown family has been making wine in Milawa, Victoria since 1889. Founded by John Francis Brown, it was under the guidance of his son, John Charles Brown, that Brown Brothers really established its reputation as a producer willing to experiment with innovative grape varieties. As a key member of Australia’s First Families of Wine, the third and fourth generations of the family keep the Brown tradition alive with members of both generations working within the business. 

Today, we have one of the largest selections of wine varieties in Australia, with most available to taste at our Cellar Door and purchase online.

Come and visit us at Milawa where you can explore all Cellar Door has to offer. From award-winning fine dining at Patricia’s Table, to delicious seasonal bites from the Wine Bar. Nestle by the fireplace in winter, or grab a beanbag and relax on the lawn when it’s warm. Discover your new favourite wine through a series of immersive tours and experiences, or celebrate your next sparkling occasion in our indulgent Prosecco lounge or historic barn. No matter the time of year there’s always a number of festivals and events held at Brown Brothers, as well as private functions and weddings year round.
