Spring is such a beautiful time on the peninsula and we've got some great excuses in the coming months to pop in and say hello - there's lots happening!
Pinot Week: 4 - 12 October
A favourite on the Mornington Peninsula calendar of events, Pinot Week promises a spoil of special events that celebrate our home's hero - pinot noir.
Join us for a celebration of all things pinot noir. Wineries from all over the peninsula get together to showcase the delights of the region.
Willow Creek Vineyard, Dexter Wines & Foxeys Hangout
Saturday 2nd October - from 6:00pm
A relaxed evening in a spectacular setting celebrating the diversity of Mornington Peninsula pinot noir with three of its most creative winemakers – Geraldine McFaul, Tod Dexter and Tony Lee. Wander through a working winery, taste wine out of barrel, and for lovers of sparkling wine, experience a disgorgement demonstration. Enter the candlelit barrel hall for a scrumptuous feast by Bernard McCarthy’s Salix Restaurant, with five-courses expertly matched to our winemakers’ 2008 & 2009 chardonnays and pinots.
6:00pm – Step inside Willow Creek’s winery
7:00pm – Dinner is served by Salix Restaurant in the barrel hall
