The Mornington Peninsula Wine Tour for 2

This Mornington Peninsula wine tour for 2 has been designed, by popular demand, for couples and small groups. Up to four guests can enjoy a visit to 4 wineries with wine tastings in a private car with your own designated driver.

The Mornington Peninsula is well known for producing quality Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. We love to show off the region’s strengths. However, if your palette prefers something different, let us know! We can customize your tour to include wineries that produce your favourite drop. From multi-million dollar cellar doors and restaurants with ocean views, to boutique wineries with well kept vineyards and open spaces, the Mornington Peninsula really has it all.

The Itinerary

The tour begins at your house, hotel, or even your office. In terms of start time, it’s up to you! Normally, we recommend a 10:00am start from Melbourne but if a later start suits, no problem. Alternatively, we can meet at a central location chosen by you, that’s convenient for everyone to get to in the morning. The day has a relaxed, no rush feel as we take our time during cellar door visits. There will be plenty of time to grab a photo or two and enjoy the surroundings.

It is approximately one hours drive from Melbourne to the Mornington Peninsula. For a tour departing Melbourne at 10:00am, we usually arrive at our first tasting venue around 11:00am. Our second tasting venue is also our lunch venue. Tastings here can take place either before or after lunch, depending on venue availability and your preference.

Enjoy a leisurely lunch, we have allowed plenty of time for you to relax in your surroundings and savour some truly remarkable food. The cost of lunch is excluded from the day, once booked we will offer a list of restaurants we work with. You are also welcome to provide us a time for an existing reservation

We then reach our third wine tasting at around 3:00pm. The fourth and final tasting venue at around 4:00pm. Allowing a comfortable 45 mins. We begin our journey home no later than 4:45pm.
