"As seen on Postcards, this is an iconic Red Hill winery and lifestyle estate, award-winning, established, and sitting on a blue-chip 19-acre holding with genuine future upside. Opportunities like this are tightly held and rarely offered." - Stavros Ambatzidis
Set high above the rolling hills of Red Hill, this is not just a property – it's a position, a brand, and an opportunity.
As seen on Postcards, this iconic 19-acre (approx. 7.69ha) estate sits on one of the Peninsula's most prominent tourist routes, delivering sweeping north-facing vineyard views and a reputation built over decades.
With an established vineyard, fully operational winery, and a beautifully renovated residence, this is a rare chance to secure one of the Mornington Peninsula's most recognisable wine estates – whether as a lifestyle acquisition, a tax-effective holding, or a serious business with scale.
The vineyard spans approximately 8 acres, planted to Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Gamay, with premium cool-climate growing conditions, elevated at 225m and underpinned by rich red volcanic soils. The estate holds a Halliday 5 Red Star rating for over a decade, reinforcing its standing in Australian winemaking.
Extensive infrastructure supports both production and tourism, including a renovated cellar door with panoramic entertaining deck, full winery facilities, underground temperature-controlled storage, solar power, EV charging, and significant visitor parking – all designed to accommodate strong direct-to-consumer trade.
The residence, recently renovated throughout, offers four bedrooms, open-plan living and expansive decking overlooking the vines – equally suited as a permanent home, weekend retreat or income-producing accommodation.
Significant capital investment (circa $2 million) has been injected into the property, including upgrades to the vineyard, irrigation, cellar door, winery equipment and brand positioning - creating a platform ready for immediate continuation or further expansion.
For those with vision, the upside is clear:
- Expand cellar door and tourism offering
- Introduce hospitality or accommodation (STCA)
- Scale production and distribution channels
- Leverage an established brand with proven demand
Importantly, the current operators and winemaking team remain in place, with the vendors willing to provide a transition period – offering a seamless pathway for both experienced operators and newcomers to the industry.
Located within walking distance to Red Hill Village and just over an hour from Melbourne, this is a rare blend of lifestyle, business and long-term landholding.
