Welcome to Point Leo Road Vineyard |
The Point Leo Road Vineyard was established in the spring of 1996, and is family owned and operated. Located on the southern slopes of the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria, it overlooks Westernport Bay to Seal Rocks and The Nobbies, which make up the southern- most tip of Phillip Island. The vineyard is a true cool climate site with maritime influences from both Westernport and Port Phillip Bays.
Point Leo Road Vineyard was originally developed as a pinot noir and chardonnay block, varieties that the Mornington Peninsula grows very well, but over the past 4 years other varieties have been planted to add diversity to what should become an interesting range of premium wines.
After a bumper crop of chardonnay and pinot noir in 2004, it was decided to use some of the excellent fruit to make wine under our own label. Since then sparkling Pinot Noir/Chardonnay, a Blanc de Noir made from pinot noir, Pinot Noir Rose, Lagrein and the ever- popular Pinot Grigio have been added.

A stunning Reserve Pinot Noir was made from an exceptional barrel of wine in 2005 and was named ”The Tom Thumb”. The Tom Thumb was the name of the small boat sailed by George Bass and Matthew Flinders as they began to explore the coastline south of Sydney in 1796.
It is in very short supply but why not make someone very happy by including it in your purchase of wines. A mixed case of SIX wines makes a wonderful gift. All our wines are available by mail order. Please use the faxable order form on the order form page or contact us for more information.
