As a key figure in the establishment of Mornington viticulture, Garry Crittenden was instrumental in forging, on behalf of the Peninsula, a reputation as a most distinguished region of articulate varietal wines. From the outset, Crittenden recognized the area's climatic suitability to Pinot Noir, exploiting it through meticulous land management and sophisticated vinification techniques. Fashioned from a mix of Pinot Noir clones, including MV6, 114 and 115, all grapes are hand picked off an auspicious north facing slope at Tuerong.
