Ocean Eight takes pride in crafting premium wines | Mornington Peninsula

Over the past 50 years, the Mornington Peninsula has transformed from orchards and farmland into one of Australia’s most exciting wine regions. Early pioneers discovered that Pinot Noir and Chardonnay thrived in its volcanic soils and cool coastal climate, where thicker-skinned grapes like Shiraz and Cabernet struggled to ripen.

The region’s rolling hills, proximity to the ocean, and mosaic of soils proved ideal for crafting wines of elegance and character. With innovation, persistence, and a willingness to experiment, the Mornington Peninsula has become world-renowned for producing some of the finest Pinot Noir and Chardonnay outside Burgundy.

Ocean Eight is proud to have played a part in this story, shaping the Peninsula’s reputation through thoughtful vineyard selection, meticulous winemaking, and an unwavering pursuit of quality.
