Staindl Wines is dedicated to crafting biodynamic wines that reflect the unique terroir of Mornington Peninsula. Established in 2004, the vineyard in Red Hill South embraces organic and biodynamic principles, ensuring that every bottle tells the story of the land. The vineyard’s iron-rich red soils, maritime climate, and dense vine plantings contribute to the character of its Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Gewürztraminer.
With a philosophy rooted in minimal intervention, the winemaking approach focuses on allowing nature to guide the process. The vineyard is dry-farmed, encouraging deep root systems and producing intensely flavoured fruit. The Staindl family’s commitment to sustainable viticulture extends beyond the vines, incorporating biodynamic composting, solar energy, and a holistic approach to land stewardship.
The Staindl Wines cellar door provides a personal and immersive tasting experience. Overlooking the vineyard, the space offers visitors the chance to explore the winery’s range in a relaxed setting that emphasises its commitment to biodynamic viticulture. Tastings showcase the vineyard’s low-yield, high-intensity wines, allowing guests to experience the depth and complexity of each vintage.
Visitors can expect a guided tasting that highlights the nuances of the site’s terroir, with discussions around the sustainable practices that shape each wine. With limited production and a focus on quality, Staindl Wines provides an intimate and thoughtful approach to wine tasting.
