Montalto is a breathtaking place to celebrate life and truly enjoy a moment out of the ordinary.
Lunch in The Restaurant or The Piazza is one of the many reasons to visit this award-winning winery. The Restaurant’s ever-changing set menu showcases the bounty from Montalto’s impressive 4 acres of gardens and orchards, along with locally sourced, seasonal ingredients from across the Peninsula. Specifically designed to share, curated collections of dishes arrive at the table in a series of courses. Each course masterfully highlights the deep connection between Montalto’s estate gardens (expertly managed by Produce Manager Julie Bennett), Montalto’s kitchens and award-winning wines.
The Piazza is a more relaxed space with weather-proof, outdoor dining overlooking the estate’s kitchen gardens, vines and sculptures. From something to snack on – think charcuterie and local cheeses - through to their renowned pizzas, substantial mains, and delicious desserts, The Piazza menu has something for everyone and is proudly one of the most popular places on the Peninsula for casual catch ups.
A personally hosted wine tasting in Montalto’s Cellar Door is all about hospitality and sharing a passion for wine. The award-winning winemaking team, led by Simon Black, create wines of exemplary quality and character. Choose from a range of seated tastings and wine experiences all hosted by experienced, friendly staff.
Since 2002, visitors to Montalto have been invited to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the estate at secluded picnic sites. Book a private picnic for a truly memorable moment in time.
When all the eating and drinking is done, take a wander along Montalto’s 1km Sculpture Trail. Wind through the vines, along wooden boardwalks and through wetlands to take in the magnificent estate views and admire the permanent collection of more than 30 sculptures, many of which were winners of the Montalto Sculpture Prize - among the most valuable private sculpture prizes in Australia.
