The Mornington Peninsula is Victoria's top wine destination, home to more than 50 wineries and vineyards specializing in world-class varietals like Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Shiraz, and Pinot Grigio. The peninsula, which is located just to the south of the city of Melbourne, is home to acclaimed wineries like Montalto and Ten Minutes by Tractor, which offer wine flight tastings and facility tours throughout the year. Many wineries offer award-winning gourmet restaurants showcasing multi-course chef-driven menus and stunning hillside and lakeside views from elegant dining rooms. The region is also home to some of Australia's top craft microbreweries, including Mornington Peninsula Brewery, Red Hill Brewery, and St. Andrews Beach Brewery. Visitors can sample local cheese and produce at businesses like Main Ridge Dairy and Green Olive at Red Hill, enjoy rejuvenating experiences at Peninsula Hot Springs, or swim and sunbathe at the region's stunning beaches at Frankston or Port Phillip Bay.
