Discover the unique character of coastal winemaking on this immersive journey through Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, where cooling ocean breezes create elegant, refined expressions of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
Your Localing host will collect you from your accommodation for a scenic drive through rolling vineyards and along the rugged coastline. Your first stop is Ten Minutes by Tractor, where you’ll step beyond the cellar door for a vineyard tour of the Spedding and Gabrielle vineyards. Learn how elevation, soil, and climate shape the region’s cool-climate wines before returning to a private tasting room for a guided masterclass featuring a curated selection of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
Next, enjoy a three-course wine-paired lunch at Pt. Leo Estate, overlooking Western Port Bay. After lunch, wander through the renowned Sculpture Park, where large-scale artworks sit among vines with sweeping ocean views.
The afternoon is yours to enjoy—visit another winery, explore the Peninsula’s beaches, or seek out local wildlife such as kangaroos and native birdlife—before a relaxed return to Melbourne by 6pm.
