An architectural landmark, Port Phillip Estate is one of Australia’s most exciting food and wine destinations.
A Spectacular Site
The monumental limestone rammed earth walls spiral from the earth and heighten anticipation of what lies within.
Inside, the light-filled Dining Room and Cellar Door open to an expansive outdoor deck with spectacular views.
The architecture is the embodiment of the pervasive philosophies of sustainability, quality and expression of place.
A Sense of Place
Located on the Mornington Peninsula, one of Australia’s foremost cool-climate maritime wine regions, the domain is a specialist Chardonnay, Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir producer.
The abstract sculptural form nestles into the landscape.
The dramatic staircase descends into the subterranean belly of the building.
Spectacular panoramic views over undulating vineyards and the coast.
