Showcasing maritime cool climate pinots (noirs, gris, still, sparkling) Peninsula Piers & Pinot returns to Flinders this Labour Day weekend, with live music, food trucks, and 50+ Mornington Peninsula wines available for tasting.
Mornington Peninsula Piers & Pinots is an all weather event, held at Flinders foreshore adjacent to the pier. Tickets are $65 per person (inclusive of GST and booking fee) and include a complimentary Riedel tasting glass, tasting notes and all wine tastings between 12 noon - 3pm.
Wineries at Peninsula Piers & Pinots include: Baillieu, Barmah Park Wines, Bittern Estate, Dexter, Elgee Park Wines, Handpicked Wines, Kyberd Hills, Lancemore Lindenderry, Mantons Creek, Montalto, Nazaaray, Ocean Eight, Pier 10, Portsea Estate, Pt Leo Estate, Quealy, Rahona Valley, Rare Hare Wines, Red Hill Estate, Stonier, Tar & Roses and Yal Yal Estate.
The Mornington Peninsula is uniquely situated with three breezes delivered via Port Phillip Bay, Western Port and Bass Strait. The effect creates ideal conditions for the region's pinots - wines with outstanding flavors, balanced natural acidity and fine tannins. This event has been held annually on the Sunday of the Victorian Labour Day long weekend since 2002 and is one of the most anticipated dates on the calendar.
Festival-goers will be well fed, with food available to purchase from Flinders Conchilia, The Flying Calamari Brothers, Greek Masa and Three Little Chefs, with coffee available from Brew Up Bar.
This is an over 18 event, however, children are welcome under supervision.
