Established in 1981 by Richard and Jill McIntyre, Moorooduc Estate is a small, family run wine business that has developed an enviable reputation for complex and food friendly wines.
Moorooduc Estate offers some of the finest of Mornington Peninsula wines and hand crafted produce available for tasting and purchase at cellar door; terrific food at Jill’s Restaurant and a secluded and exclusive weekend getaway.
"Our philosophy in everything we do is to make the most of top quality ingredients. Intensive, hands-on care in the vineyard, with minimal use of chemicals, produces the best possible fruit for our wines. Wild yeast ferments and minimal intervention winemaking, with a nod to traditional Burgundian techniques, allow our wines to express their site specificity, or terroir. Similarly, in the restaurant we aim to source ingredients that are seasonal, local and organic."
"Richard McIntyre has taken Moorooduc Estate to new heights as he has completely mastered the difficult art of gaining maximum results from wild yeast fermentations. While Chardonnays remain the jewel in the crow, the Pinot Noirs and other wines are also impressive. The viticulturalist is Hugh Robinson, who tends the vines with same attention to detail he bestows on his own vineyard. An additional attraction is the restaurant, with Richard McIntyre’s wife, Jill, producing unfailing exquisite food.”
