Mornington Peninsula Region wineries

The Mornington Peninsula region in Victoria, Australia, is renowned for its pristine beaches, green hinterland, and more than 50 boutique cellar doors. The area is particularly famous for its production of pinot noir, chardonnay, pinot grigio, pinot gris, and shiraz. The region's climate, topography, and soil structure create distinct microclimates, making it ideal for vine growing. The vineyards are close to the ocean, benefiting from a cool maritime climate, which is perfect for producing medium-bodied, dry wines with robust structure and complexity.

The wine region is relatively young, with the first planting taking place in 1886. It endured economic challenges and Phylloxera infection in the late 19th century, but it has now become recognized as Australia’s leading producer of high-quality maritime, cool-climate wines, especially pinot noir. The region hosts the International Pinot Noir Celebration annually, which is a popular event.

Visitors to the Mornington Peninsula can enjoy wine tastings at over 50 cellar doors, and the region is supported by a variety of exceptional restaurants, bistros, and cafes. The area also offers diverse activities, including pristine beaches, spectacular cliff tops, water sports, and golf, making it a perfect destination for wine enthusiasts and tourists alike.
