[VIC] Mornington Peninsula Wine on Tour

The vignerons of the Mornington Peninsula will be taking over Victoria by Farmer’s Daughters at Federation Square, on Thursday 22 May, hosting an invitation only trade & media tasting.

This combination of powerhouse pioneers, winemakers, owners, legends and the ‘next-generation’ with their own ambitious aspirations will be predominantly promoting the region’s Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris among the group of 20 wineries, who have new stories to tell, new wines to share and people to meet.

Wineries include Crittenden Wines, Dexter, Foxeys Hangout, Garagiste, Kerri Greens, Handpicked Wines, Kyberd Hills, Port Phillip Estate & Kooyong Estate, Montalto, Ocean Eight, Nazaaray, Paringa Estate, Polperro & Even Keel, Pt Leo Estate, Phaedrus, Quealy Winemakers, Rahona Valley, Tar & Roses and Southern Light Vineyards, Stonier, Symons Wines and Yabby Lake.

The Mornington Peninsula is a region of spectacular natural beauty located 80km south of Melbourne. It has a long history of fruit growing in a cool, maritime climate with prevailing cool southerly winds coming off Bass Strait which moderate temperatures to provide mild growing conditions. This enables us to grow and ripen quality Pinot Noir, a grape that flourishes in a select few regions around the world. In rich volcanic soils of the Peninsula coupled with the maritime climate deliver wines which embody purity and perfume intensity of fruit flavour and lively acidity that is characteristic of Mornington Peninsula wines.

The Vignerons of the Mornington Peninsula are a collective of boutique producers that have a passion for growing exceptional fruit, making often very limited quantities of world-class wines, and will be pouring over 120 wines for one day only.

The trade tasting will be followed by a $85 per head, ticketed consumer event in the evening.
