Ellis Wines is a family owned business situated on the rich red Cambrian soil in Colbinabbin. This famous soil extends both sides of the Mt Camel range found within the Heathcote wine growing region. In the words of international viticulturalist Larry Bradley... "This site is suitable for growing premium wine grapes. This Cambrian red soil has the potential to produce very high quality fruit" This region continues to develop an incredible reputation for its wine production. With elegance, grace and style we have harnessed the amazing regional abilities to produce our outstanding range of wines. Joy block (our first block) was planted in 1999. Today our vineyard has grown to over 123.5 acres of vines and includes Shiraz, Merlot, Viognier and Cabernet.

Our blocks are all named after family members and include:

• Joy( Shiraz 24.73 acres)
