Waratah Hill Vineyard
South Gippsland is incredibly beautiful and a true, cool-climate region with maritime influences from the often stormy Bass Strait. Wineries from Phillip Island to the foothills of the Strzelecki Ranges produce elegant chardonnay and pinot gris, but have found their true expression with pinot noir of superb flavour and structure.
Waratah Hill is located on the road to the iconic Wilsons Promontory National Park, is one of the southern most vineyards on the Australian mainland.
