Established in 1984, Myrtaceae is a vineyard and winery situated in the Main Ridge area on the Mornington Peninsula, Victoria. Myrtaceae remains the highest winery on the Peninsula, making it ideal for the production of limited quantities of high quality, cool climate, single vineyard Chardonnay and Pinot Noir wines.

The owners, John and Julie Trueman, are passionate Peninsula vintners who grow their grapes, produce their own wines and host Cellar Door visitors every weekend, with tastings conducted in Riedel rolling tasting glasses. The winery is nestled in a small picturesque valley and surrounded by every-growing gardens.

Lovely, peaceful vineyard with cellar door well worth a visit.
Very adorable yet respectfully socially distanced dog greets you along with the owner for a great tasting. Their rosé is spectacular!
Gorgeous spots to sit and enjoy your wine while the butterflies and bees thrum above you in the gardens.

Booked in a wine tasting with a cheese platter. Lovely wine, great cheese and great service. If you want to escape the rat race of the big wineries be sure to book. 👌🏻

Had a great time here, the pinot noir was delicious. They had an unusual Chardonnay but it was still good. John was very friendly and knowledgeable and created a relaxed environment. The surrounds were also absolutely beautiful to sit in and have a yarn about wine. All round a really good little winery.

Gorgeous, down-to-earth winery. John is happy to have a chat and spend some time with you. Lovely, well-established gardens (I believe that's due to John's partner) and a really charming space. Oh, and the wine is great too!
