Our famous Truffle Hunt & Lunch is back!
The day starts with an interactive truffle hunt with the Mornington Peninsula’s first truffle producer and founder of Red Hill Truffles, Jenny McAuley, at her stunning farm in Red Hill.
Jenny’s expert knowledge of truffles, fungi and the peninsula, coupled with her engaging storytelling, build on the ancient mystique of truffle hunting in preparation for an exhilarating hunt. Get your hands dirty with Jenny and her truffle hunting dogs Thomas and Maddie, as the dogs put their well-honed skills to work finding truffles, which you can uncover, digging carefully to reveal the well-hidden fungi and release its aroma. (Please note: guests will need to wear warm clothes and appropriate, comfortable footwear for the truffle hunt.)
After the thrill of the hunt, it’s time to head to The Restaurant at Montalto for a 5-course truffle-inspired lunch where the winter truffles you’ve unearthed on your hunt will be freshly shaven over each spectacular dish.
The truffle extravaganza continues! Add a generous shave of truffles on any dish from our menu, or delight in our limited-edition truffle-inspired dishes, only available this weekend!
Walk ins only for groups of less than 10 people. Doors open at 11am.
Pop into The Cellar Door, pre or post truffles, for a tasting hosted by our experienced, knowledgeable, multi award-winning wine team. Relax and enjoy a selection of wine varietals, hand-picked by our team, as they personally guide you through our range.

Whilst you’re onsite at Montalto, we invite you to explore the Montalto Sculpture Trail.
Sculpture is an integral part of life at Montalto and a highlight of any visit to the estate. Our 1km Sculpture Trail winds through our vines, along wooden boardwalks and through the wetlands and affords spectacular views of both the sculptures and the property along the way. Many of our permanent sculptures were winners of the Montalto Sculpture Prize – among the most valuable private sculpture prizes in Australia.
