Tasting Notes
Moonambel is a rural town located in the hilly ranges between St Arnaud and Avoca in Central Western Victoria. Hand picked, foot stomped and pressed 24 hours later. Fermented in seasoned French barriques and tank. 15 months maturation with only small amounts of sulphur along the way, no fining or filtration. - Winery Note
Dilworth & Allain is a small-scale, artisanal winery founded in 2017 by winemaker Chris Dilworth and artist-winemaker Loïque Allain. Based in Leonards Hill near Daylesford, Victoria, they work with vineyards across the Macedon Ranges—farming two sites themselves—and produce exceptionally low volumes, each wine crafted with a strong sense of place.
Chris brings deep experience from winemaking stints in Australia and Burgundy, while Loïque’s background in fine arts informs both the creative approach to winemaking and the distinctive hand-designed labels. Together, they have developed a reputation for thoughtful, terroir-focused wines that combine precision with artistry.
Their range includes expressive Riesling (often made with skin contact), textural Chardonnay from old vines, and elegant Pinot Noir from the Romsey area. All are made with minimal intervention, native yeasts, and only sulphur as an additive, reflecting a philosophy of purity and authenticity.
In just a few years, Dilworth & Allain have established themselves as one of the Macedon Ranges’ most exciting new producers, celebrated for wines of energy, clarity and quiet intensity.
