Pt. Leo Estate | The perfect encounter between art, wine and sea breeze

๐Ÿ“ Hidden Art Gallery on the Mornington Peninsula Located on the shores of Port Phillip Bay, Pt. Leo Estate is not only Australia's top winery, but also an open-air sculpture art gallery. Here, vineyards, contemporary art and the magnificent views of the Southern Ocean interweave to become the most unique cultural landmark in the suburbs of Melbourne. โœจ Highlight Experience 1๏ธโƒฃ 50+ giant sculptures hidden in the vineyard Walk through the estate and encounter installation works by international artists such as KAWS and Anish Kapoor, with the background of undulating vines and the distant horizon. 2๏ธโƒฃ Pinot Noir Feast in the Glass Wine Cellar Mainly featuring cool climate wines, you must try the single-vineyard Pinot Noir, paired with the chef's seasonal menu made with local ingredients (recommended: smoked duck breast + cherry sauce). 3๏ธโƒฃ Cliff Trail Whale Watching Point The coastal trail behind the winery leads directly to Pt. Leo Point, where southern right whales can often be seen migrating in winter (June-September)! ๐Ÿ“Œ Practical information - Address: 3649 Frankston-Flinders Rd, Merricks - Hours: Cellar door 11:00-17:00 | Restaurant lunch 12:00-15:00 - Tips: - Sculpture garden ticket $15 (can be deducted for wine tasting) - Weekends require reservations for Laura restaurant window seats (panoramic sea view) - Pet-friendly, suitable for picnics with furry children "This is not a traditional winery - it is a triple paradise for art lovers, alcoholics and nature lovers." It was almost 5pm when we arrived, so we didn't go into the sculpture garden, and wine tasting was not allowed, so we just checked in and left. #summervacay #naturalwonders #travel #thingstodo #familytravel #myitinerary
