Provenance Award for Pinot Noir - Mornington Peninsula Wine Show

On Monday this week, we were awarded the Provenance Award for Pinot Noir at the Mornington Peninsula Wine Show. Anthony Jones, Director of Wine at Montalto, was delighted in the team effort:

"Comprised of a tasting of three wines, this is the pinnacle Trophy at the MP Wine Show, which recognises consistent quality across six vintages. This trophy is the one that the team strive to achieve.
It's such a thrill to win this award."


Simon Black, our winemaker, summed up everyone's feelings after the Award Show this week:


"It’s been a long year devoid of many pleasures (and wine shows). So it is good to bag a couple of trophies at the Mornington Peninsula Wine Show, including Pinot Noir Provenance Award & Trophy for our Shiraz, for the second year in a row (red varietal, or, blend). We also had a couple of sneaky Golds for our 2019 Pennon Hill Chardonnay and our 2019 Single Vineyard Tuerong Block Chardonnay. Immensely grateful to, and proud of, our team in the winery and vineyard of Hannah, Dan and Cam!"
