Winemaking
The Nazaaray Estate Winery is an boutique winery in Australia. It is one of the smallest and southern-most vineyards on the Mornington Peninsula. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, the two classic Burgundian varieties, are grown on a north facing slope that sits 750 feet above sea level and about 3 kilometres inland. Most of the vine rows run north-south to get maximum exposure to the sun. Traditional Burgundian vineyard management including spur-pruning and wine-making methods including open-vat fermentation are employed in wine production. Grapes are hand-picked, and all wine is made and bottled on site. Relatively high rainfall in the area and the deep basalt soil makes irrigation unnecessary.
