The first vines on Bindi vineyard were planted in 1988 by vigneron Michael Dhillon and his father Bill. The family farm, purchased in the 1950s in the Macedon Ranges, today plays home to some of the country’s most precious Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines.
A deep connection to family and place underpins everything that vigneron Michael Dhillon does. His fastidious vineyard management and precision in the winery has seen his label rise over the years as some of the leading examples of Australian Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, setting a new benchmark for all Australian producers to strive for.
The wines of Bindi have been heralded the world over for their rare power and clarity. They now find pride of place in some of the world’s most discerning cellars. These are collectable, cellar-worthy wines that showcase the unique character of one of Australia’s great vineyard sites.

Slightly more purple colour, but shares the brightness of Block 5; delicious plum and black and red cherry flavours fill the mouth with a caress of sweetly rounded fruit; a very different proposition to Block 5, ready whenever the mood takes you, but will not disappoint as it ages.
