Mornington Peninsula Wine Region

The Mornington Peninsula is recognised for its remarkable ability to produce a wide range of elegant wines brimming with character. It's been said that the region has more vineyards per square kilometre than anywhere else in Australia.

There is an impressive range of varietals grown across the relatively small region – everything from Tempranillo to Gewürztraminer – but the recognised strengths of this cool climate, slow-ripening region remain chardonnay, pinot noir and pinot gris.
