Brown Brothers, Australian Wines Looking For US Import Partner
Our Family
At Brown Brothers we have tradition but we are not the traditional wine company. We are steeped in our family heritage and we have a history of innovation that inspires our future direction.
Brown Brothers is one of Australia’s leading family-owned wine companies, with the family making wine in Victoria for over 120 years.
Founded in 1889 by John Francis Brown, it was under the guidance of his son, John Charles Brown, that Brown Brothers established its reputation as a producer willing to experiment with innovative grape varieties. This experimentation and sense of adventure carries across the whole business and can be seen at our cellar doors from Milawa to Tasmania.
As a key member of Australia’s First Families of Wine, the third and fourth generations of the family keep tradition alive with over 60 different wines available for tasting. The Brown family is proud to have forged a reputation, locally and abroad, as varietal wine specialists and winemaking innovators. Over the years we’ve seen many changes in the Australian Wine industry, yet the cornerstones of Brown Brothers remain constant. We’re still a family business; still hand-crafting wines.
Vineyards
The Brown Brothers vineyards in Victoria and Tasmania are as varied as the wines and wine styles. Within a 50km radius of Milawa, climatic conditions range from cool, alpine areas to lush temperate valleys to sun-drenched plains. Each of the vineyards has been selected on the basis of their suitability for the variety or wine style. Varietal diversity through the Brown Brothers family of wines provides a point of difference and offers consumers the ability to experiment across a range.
