How to Buy Willespie Estate Wines

Updated

You can buy Willespie Estate wines directly from the winery — either online through willespie.com.au, where the site shows a "Quick view" and "Add to cart" function on each wine, or in person at the cellar door in Wilyabrup, Margaret River, which is open daily from 10:30am to 5pm. Online listings display prices in Australian dollars, so you can see the cost before you commit.

Buying Online from willespie.com.au

The website is set up as a straightforward product catalogue rather than a complex store. Each wine appears as a card with a "Quick view" option and an "Add to cart" button, so you can check a bottle's details and drop it into your cart without leaving the page.

Prices shown on the site (as listed):

Wine Listed price
Wilyabrup Reserve Semillon 2025 $55.00
Sauvignon Blanc 2025 $25.00
Semillon Sauvignon Blanc 2023 $28.00
Verdelho 2022 $28.00
Rosé 2024 $28.00

A few practical notes based on what the site shows:

  • The listed prices appear as both "Regular price" and "Sale price" at the same figure (for example, $55.00 / $55.00), with a "-0%" sale marker — so at the time of writing these are not discounted.
  • The site does not publish shipping costs, delivery areas, or payment methods in the material available, so confirm those at checkout before finalising an order.
  • If you are buying from outside Australia, check whether the store ships internationally before building a cart.

Buying at the Cellar Door

The cellar door in Wilyabrup is open daily, 10:30am–5pm, and is described as the place to taste, explore, and experience the wines in person. Buying here lets you try before you commit and ask staff about current releases — useful if you are deciding between the reserve range and the standard range.

The winery notes a "new chapter" after 50 years in Wilyabrup, with new experiences at the cellar door alongside wines that are still dry-grown and made on site. If you are visiting specifically to purchase, that context is worth knowing: the range and presentation may be evolving.

What You Can Buy

The wines visible on the site fall into a few groups:

  • Wilyabrup Reserve range — positioned as "a place of its own," with the Wilyabrup Reserve Semillon 2025 at $55.
  • White wines — Sauvignon Blanc 2025 ($25), Semillon Sauvignon Blanc 2023 ($28), Verdelho 2022 ($28).
  • Rosé — Rosé 2024 ($28).
  • Fortified and older-vintage wines — the site also references a Black Jewel Fortified Shiraz and Cabernet Franc from 2009, 2014, and 2019, which suggests some library or limited releases may be available.

Availability of the older and fortified wines is not confirmed by the listing data, so treat those as "ask at the cellar door or check the site" rather than guaranteed stock.

Choosing Between Online and Cellar Door

Online Cellar door
When Any time Daily, 10:30am–5pm
Tasting first No Yes
Access to limited/older releases Depends on what's listed Ask staff directly
Best for Reordering known favourites, buying from elsewhere First-time buyers, deciding between ranges

If you already know which wine you want, online is the faster route. If you are choosing between the reserve and standard ranges, or hoping to find the fortified or older-vintage bottles, the cellar door gives you the chance to taste and ask.

Common Snags to Check Before You Buy

  • Shipping and payment details aren't shown in the available site material — confirm at checkout.
  • Vintages move on. The listings show 2022–2025 wines; a vintage you saw earlier may be replaced.
  • Sale pricing may be cosmetic. The "-0%" markers suggest no current discount, so don't assume a bargain from the "Sale price" label alone.
