Mornington Peninsula discovery tasting & Piazza lunch at Montalto

The cool, maritime climate of the Mornington Peninsula creates the ideal growing environment for the early ripening varieties Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Gris, (as well as a unique cool-climate take on the classic Australian variety, Shiraz).

The Mornington Peninsula Discovery Tasting at Montalto offers beginners and seasoned wine lovers alike insight into the roles played by variety, site, and winemaking in producing world-class and cool-climate wines. Set in Montalto's devoted Wine Experience Room overlooking the Estate vineyards, you will be guided through an educational tasting of wine from the current releases and back vintages, as well as limited bottlings not available elsewhere.

Following your tasting, you'll take a seat in the beautiful Piazza Cafe, where the seasonal menu is drawn from our produce gardens. Enjoy a casual, shared lunch with a glass of Estate wine. After lunch, take your time to explore the contemporary sculpture collection set amongst the produce gardens and vineyards of the Montaldo Estate.
