Montalto offers all visitors an experience to remember. We have the dream that all who visit feel rewarded by the time shared. Montalto is a family-owned business operated on sustainable principles, offering an epicurean journey of five star-rated estate wine, olive oil, Chefs’ Hat restaurant, kitchen gardens and orchards, contemporary sculpture and natural wetlands. Montalto Wine, Olive Oil and More The thirty acres of vines at Montalto are the source of our premium cool climate wine, with the estate holding the top red five star rating in Halliday’s Wine Companion. We focus on the key Mornington Peninsula varieties of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, however our range has something for everyone, from Sparkling, Pinot Grigio, and Rosé through to Tempranillo and Shiraz. The 1500 mature olive trees on the property produce our cold pressed, extra virgin olive oils; estate cured olives, and olive tapenade. Our products are available only from the estate, and can be experienced in our intimate cellar door. Montalto Dining The Chef’s Hat rated Montalto Restaurant, acknowledged as the Peninsula’s best, serves food inspired by regional France, but anchored in the fresh seasonal produce of the estate and region. The adjoining piazza offers simple, tasty food with wine enjoyed in a garden or courtyard table setting. Selected sites within the property are available for elegant, fully catered outdoor picnic dining, ideal for a romantic lunch or unique experience. Montalto Estate, Gardens and Sculpture Montalto believes in making the best use of our property, to share it with others. Extensive herb and vegetable kitchen gardens, fruit and nut orchard, berry grove and rose garden sit alongside meandering streams through fern gullied wetlands accessed via established boardwalks. A permanent outdoor sculpture collection can be enjoyed throughout the property, highlighted by an annual sculpture exhibition from mid-February until the end of April. |
