Another of my favourite wineries a little more commercial but the tasting room is huge and tastings are free. Vast range and great prices. Outdoor area looks out onto the vineyards and has a great restaurant serving tasting platters and pizzas. Great for families too.

A short drive on the Peninsula Link to Carrum Downs leads you to this interesting and quirky award winning brewery offering tasting paddles, beer on tap and takeaways. This is a favourite with the younger generation featuring IPA, Rye, Porter, Stout, Neipa and ale. They have so many varieties it was my nephews dream and the can designs on takeaways are very interesting e.g. "Pickled Dan" I believe a reference to the Rick and Morty's cult tv show.
