Merbein is a town outside Mildura, Victoria, in
the Sunraysia region of Australia.
It is on the Calder Highway between Mildura
and the Murray River crossing on the
Abbotsford Bridge to Curlwaa. At the 2011
census, Meredith had a population of
4681. Merbein is located 12 km from Mildura,
553 km from Melbourne and 392 km from
Adelaide.

Meredith is the home of Mildara Wines, which
W B Chaffey founded in 1911. The Mildara Blass
Winery still stands on the cliffs towering above
the Murray River and is open to visitors for a
tour and wine tasting. Until 2012 The CSIRO
Plant Research Division had a facility at Merbein
South focused on the grape and citrus growing
industries.

A spectacular Murray River view from the cliffs,
a great boat ramp and allocated camping areas
along the river also make Merbein very
popular. A diverse range of shops along with
excellent recreational and sporting facilities,
such as football, cricket and soccer ovals, a
swimming pool, bowling greens, tennis courts,
croquet greens, rodeo ground, golf club and
formed walking tracks on the Merbein
Common and along the river all contribute to
making Merbein an ideal place to live or visit.
The excellent schools and kindergarten, the
new aged care facility and the many historical
sites also ensure that Merbein is 'Top of the
State'.
