Overview
The Port Phillip Estate Red Hill vineyard is located on the Mornington Peninsula on Eocene volcanic soils. The wines are made from domain grown, handpicked grapes and aim to manifest terroir: the integration of the geology and soils with the macroclimate of the region, the mesoclimates of the various sites within the vineyard and the weather of the annual grape growing season. The cultural operations in the vineyard and practices in the winery endeavour to articulate these unique characteristics diligently, respectfully and without artifice.

Winery Tasting Notes
Aroma
The 2014 Port Phillip Chardonnay is aromatically complex with fruit notes of nectarine and white peach that meld with the more savoury scents of cashew and flint.
Palate
The palate is intensely citrus in flavour - mainly grapefruit and lemon - and is long and driven. A dense, chalky texture leads into a powerful finish.
Cellaring
It should continue to evolve gracefully for a number of years in the cellar.

Winery Profile
The Port Phillip Estate winery, James Halliday's 2012 Winery of the Year, is situated at Red Hill in the heart of the beautiful Mornington Peninsula. Owned by the Gjergja family, winemaking is overseen by winemaker, Sandro Mosele.
Surrounded by mounds of native grasses and indigenous spotted gums, the new Port Phillip Estate winery, designed by Wood Marsh Architecture, emerges from the landscape as a dramatic curved sculpture made of rammed-earth. Inside, a large cellar door and tasting room, and a light-filled restaurant open out on to an expansive outdoor deck. Underneath, state-of-the-art winemaking facilities - a barrel room, bottling line, wine processing plant, cellaring and offices - share space with six luxury accommodation suites, complete with private decks. Views across the vines to the sea are panoramic.
