WINE REGION
The Mornington Peninsula is a maritime region about 50km south-east of Melbourne city centre. The climate is moderated by sea breezes year-round and the weather is famously capricious, giving rise to Melbourne’s signature “four seasons in one day”. Summers are generally mild and autumn is warm and calm. A spine of hills runs down the centre of the peninsula and vineyards at about 200m elevation are slightly cooler than those on low lands. The region is characterised by small, family-owned vineyards. It is particularly well suited to Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

Hand-harvested fruit, carefully selected and chilled overnight at the winery, sets the stage for this wine. Destemmed and fermented in open vessels, the must undergoes daily hand plunging, ensuring a delicate extraction of colour and tannin, while imbuing the wine with remarkable complexity. Following this meticulous process, the wine is gently pressed off and aged for 11 months in a blend of new and seasoned oak barriques sourced from select coopers. The result is a wine of unparalleled depth, revealing layers of nuanced flavours and a velvety texture that beckons the palate to explore further.
