Kooyong Estate

Kooyong Estate is widely considered the Mornington Peninsula's benchmark producer, farming 27ha of estate vineyards on deep red volcanic soils above the bay at Merricks North. Winemaker Glen Hayley produces a suite of single-vineyard Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays that showcase the Peninsula's extraordinary site diversity. Kooyong's approach — minimal intervention, whole-bunch components, indigenous fermentation — produces wines that rival Australia's finest Pinot Noir and Chardonnay and stand comparison with premier Burgundy.

Kooyong Estate has established the Mornington Peninsula as a serious Pinot Noir region of international significance, with their single-vineyard range consistently among Australia's most sought-after cool-climate wines.
