With the Mornington Peninsula being only about an hour's drive from Melbourne, on the southern coast of Victoria, finding an appealing winery cellar door should be a breeze.
The Mornington Peninsula has over 100 wineries, many with cellar doors, restaurants and of course wine tasting. The Mornington Peninsula has become Melbourne's own wine region, producing quantities of high quality wine. While most varieties are grown, the cool climate of the Peninsula is particularly noted for its pinot noir and chardonnay varieties.
