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.

Whole bunch-pressed fruit underwent fermentation in French oak barrels, with a blend of partial wild and malolactic fermentation, accompanied by regular stirring. Matured for 11 months in a mix of seasoned and new barrels.
