September Residency: Quealy Winemaker
Four weeks. Five decades of Peninsula winemaking. Right here in Dromana.
Weekly tasting flights, wines by the glass, Sunday bottle discounts and an intimate Dinner with the Winemaker on Sunday 4th October. This is Peninsula wine at its most personal.
Meet Quealy
Some wineries make great wine. Others change the conversation entirely. Kathleen Quealy and Kevin McCarthy were among the first to put the Mornington Peninsula on the map, pioneering Pinot Gris and Grigio when no one else was paying attention. Their Balnarring block has been growing since 1982. Today, son Tom McCarthy leads the winemaking across five heritage single vineyard sites, all farmed organically.
The Residency Includes:
- $20pp tasting flights: new lineup every week
- Wines by the glass: All Quealy wines available all month
- 10% off bottles: every Sunday this month
- Dinner with the Winemaker: Sunday 4th October, 6:30–8:30 pm
