It is a genuine family operation, with father and founder Garry Crittenden now overseeing the vineyard, son Rollo the winemaking and daughter Zoe the marketing. The wine tasting experience occurs in the large home where the Crittenden family once lived; recently renovated and converted to the stylish, purpose built wine centre. The large range of wines reflect Rollo's passion for traditional varietals as well as his inability to resist the temptation to experiment in the winery. This means that the wine tasting experience is informative and educational. Imperatively though, it is fun and like anything to do with wine, best enjoyed with friends and family.

Ten Minutes By Tractor

1333 Mornington-Flinders Road, Main Ridge VIC 3928
Ten Minutes by Tractor was formed in 1999 by three families, each of whom owned vineyards close to each other on Mornington Peninsula with an aim to produce wines that reflected the unique character of their vineyards. In 2004, Ten Minutes By Tractor was bought by Martin Spedding. Ten Minutes By Tractor has 34 hectares of bearing vineyards, with average age of over 20 years, including Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Gris. The different vineyard locations are at different elevations and orientations and give them the opportunity of picking and vinifying grapes from each block within each vineyard, separately. In the restaurant, chef Stuart Bell produces outstanding dishes, using high quality, local produce as much as possible, including herbs, salads and vegetables from their own kitchen garden. 'The vineyards that supply the grapes for these outstanding regional wines are ten minutes apart by tractor, hence the name. A collection of old tractors reinforces the theme, but the main focus is on the cellar door and top class restaurant overlooking the verdant landscape. Picture windows bring the outside in, open fires beckon in winter and the sea lies in the distance. It is comfy and hospitable, but also very professional. Standards are very high in both food and wine; the signature Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are seriously impressive.' Ralph Kyte-Powell.

Bass and Flinders Distillery

40 Collins Road, Dromana VIC 3936
Symbolising the urge to explore uncharted territory, two famous Australian explorers, George Bass and Matthew Flinders have served as the inspiration behind the unique Bass and Flinders Distillery business on Red Hill. Bass and Flinders Distillery was founded in 2009 by Wayne Klintworth and Bob Laing. During that year the business partners investigated the Mornington Peninsula and discovered many wineries but no distilleries. They saw this as an opportunity and created an artisanal distillery for the production of grape based spirits and liqueurs. In order to achieve their goals Bob and Wayne enlisted the assistance of a master Cognac distiller to mentor them in the art of distillation. They have also forged contacts with artisanal distilleries in Cognac and Normandy, France. Wayne and Bob share a passion to produce unique products and aim to produce an Australian aged spirit that is distinctive and comparable with the best products from France. Their objective is to launch this aged spirit product in early 2015. The heart of the Bass and Flinders Distillery is the 300 litre French designed Alembic style still. The small batch sizes and double distillation techniques produce the high quality grape spirit required to mature and age in specially commissioned French oak barrels. Bass and Flinders Distillery also offer a distinct range of other grape spirit based products, including gins, vodkas, grappa, limoncello and crema di limoncello. Bass and Flinders Distillery offer visitors a different tasting experience that complements the area's wine-tasting options. They have a cellar door and you can visit for tastings and purchases on the weekends and public holidays. Tours of the distillery can be arranged by appointment and Gin Master Classes are also conducted every month.
Staindl Wines Logo and Images

Staindl Wines

63 Shoreham Road, Red Hill South VIC 3937
Staindl Wines oldest vines turn 30 this year, representing some of the oldest vines on the peninsula. The depth of flavour in the fruit they provide has been even further enhanced by the natural approach to the viticulture. Paul Staindl started looking at and thinking seriously about pinot noir in Australia in the 1980s. It needed to be cool climate. It needed to be maritime influenced. It needed to be easterly and/or northerly facing. It needed to be a special spot. The site near the top of the Red Hill ridge with its east-north east aspect, provides an ideal growing site for the vines. They have the benefit of waking up with the eastern sun warming their leaves and then the opportunity of enjoying the day view out to Phillip Island across Western Port Bay. Being on the easterly side of the ridge, they avoid the worst excesses of the hot western sun as it fades for the day during the long warm days of summer. The soils are composed of classic Red Hill deep chocolate brown earth with iron buckshot through it. This composition provides the bones to the wines with a little iron in the skeleton. The altitude provides the long cool evenings to lengthen the ripening. Long slow ripening allows the fruit to build flavours which provides the fine perfume, delicate red fruit, and the length on the palate which we all look for. Staindl Wines embarked on a biodynamic regime which has seen wonderful improvement in the humus and composition of the soil structure as well as a returning balance to the vines. Made with minimal intervention, the makers seek to have them truly represent what the vintage seasonal conditions provide and thus, there will be variation from year to year
