Mornington Peninsula Wines
South of Melbourne, the Mornington Peninsula grape growing region has a cool, maritime climate that is most known for their Pinot Noir and Chardonnay production. Other varieties that have seen some success here include Pinot Gris and Tempranillo.
However, it does seem that Pinot Noir is their focus judging from the fact that The Mornington Peninsula International Pinot Noir Celebration is held once every two years. The event displays the region’s capabilities in making some of Australia’s finest Pinot Noir in front of local and international audiences.
James Halliday – “Intense, clear purple-crimson; the evocative bouquet has blanched black cherry and cherry pip aromas, the palate delivering in spades all the promise of the bouquet; it has great length, line and balance, the dark cherry flavours coating the mouth, yet doing so without effort (or extraction).”
