Our Story

Fermoy is a Wilyabrup producer from Margaret River, recognised for Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay.

Established in 1985, our home estate sits by the Wilyabrup Brook, just 4.5km from the Indian Ocean. Gravel loam over clay, a mild Mediterranean climate and strong maritime influence shape wines known for refinement, precision and regional character.

Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay sit at the heart of the Fermoy story, with Wilyabrup giving these varieties the structure, elegance and sense of place that define our estate.

Our Place

Crafting expressive wine begins in the vineyard. For nearly 25 years, Vineyard Manager Andy Keig has led Fermoy’s vineyard with a “less is more” approach, focused on balance, fruit quality and long-term sustainability.

Fermoy continues to make conscious efforts to minimise its footprint, including reducing herbicide and pesticide use, lowering tractor passes and planting mid-row cover crops to improve soil structure, increase biodiversity and naturally suppress weeds.
