Set in the Darling Range east of Perth, Lion Mill Vineyards is planted with vines on land selected in the 1870s. Initially part of an important timber milling area, the region later became a centre of fruit growing and small farming.
The Lion Mill cellar door looks out over the vineyards on this picturesque property.
Lion Mill Vineyards is located on the northern side of a gently sloping valley on Charlotte Brook, an upper tributary of Jane Brook. The soils are those typical of the Perth Hills Geographical Indication: loam, gravelly loam and lateritic gravels.
The elevation - about 300 metres, the cold winters and the warm dry summers provide conditions that are well suited to the production of quality fruit displaying regional characteristics.
