Stonier Wines

Back under private ownership, as of December 2022... Stonier was one of the first wineries to be established in the region in 1978 by Brian Stonier and his family at Merricks, on the southern edge of Victoria's Mornington Peninsula. Stonier planted Chardonnay in 1978, followed by Pinot Noir in 1982. Stonier and the Mornington Peninsula have subsequently built their world-renowned reputation on these two varieties, as the region’s cool maritime climate makes for the perfect canvas to bring these varieties to life. Stonier's dedication to crafting premium Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and sparkling wine has never been stronger. At only an hour’s drive from Melbourne’s CBD, this region is a popular weekend destination, with many gourmet dining options and boutique accommodation on offer. The Stonier Cellar Door is open seven days a week for wine tastings and sales. Bookings can be made online or by phone.
