The Mornington Peninsula

With now over 120 vineyards and 60 wineries the Mornington Peninsula stands tall as a major player in the production of quality cool climate wines in Australia, and yet the region has been able to maintain a strong sense of intimacy – each venture down a narrow country lane can easily lead to the discovery of another new wine to be enjoyed.

The combination of a cool maritime climate, gentle north facing slopes and ideal soils has made this region a perfect partner for varieties such as chardonnay, pinot noir, pinot gris, sauvignon blanc and, on the warmer sites, cabernet sauvignon and shiraz.

The Mornington Peninsula wines go hand in hand with many other activities in the region. Our world class golf courses, pristine beaches, and endless expanses of bay and ocean have also done their bit to make the Mornington Peninsula the complete get away package.
