Enjoy a wine tasting tour on the Mornington Peninsula

There's no shortage of things to do on Mornington Peninsula, especially if you have a taste for the finer things in life. One of its most appealing attractions is its vast expanse of vineyards dotted around the region. There are dozens of wineries offering tastings here, and while Pinot Noir is the area's most-loved drop, there's a whole range of others to indulge in during your holiday.

One of the easiest and best ways to make the most of Mornington Peninsula's wineries is by taking an organised tour. These can be luxurious or budget-friendly, depending on your provider and the level of indulgence you're looking for. Some companies offer chauffeured Rolls Royce vehicles to take you to and from vineyards, while others blend wine tasting with quality made local food. Melbourne Private Tours' Foodies Journey through the Mornington Peninsula is one such option, taking you through 27 acres of farm land which produces olives, herbs, vegetables and grapes in a decadent 'paddock to plate' experience. 

Not only will you get to sample cool climate wines, but you'll also spend time in a kitchen with a skilled chef to try your hand at making gnocchi, cooking free range sausages or baking fresh sourdough bread.

If you'd rather focus all your attention on the wines, try an Amour of the Grape tour, perfect for groups as small as two people and as large as seven. These intimate tours cover four or five wineries including Mantons Creek, Port Phillip Estate and Dunns Creek. Sample some of the best wines in the country and enjoy an itinerary planned to suit your preferences and requirements. If you're a Chardonnay drinker we'll include wineries that specialise in this delicious white, and will pick you up and drop you back off at your Mornington Peninsula accommodation.
