About Milawa
Milawa is a town on Snow Road about 18 km south-east of Wangaratta in north-eastern Victoria, at the northern end of the King Valley wine region, between the King River and the Ovens River. It is the heart of the Milawa Gourmet Region, home to the Brown Brothers winery, established in 1889, and the Milawa Cheese Company, which makes cheese in a butter factory dating from the 1890s. The name is of Aboriginal origin, said to combine words for eyes and water, and the Murray to Mountains Rail Trail passes through the district.
