A lens on Kooyong Wines

Kooyong is a specialist Pinot Noir and Chardonnay producer located on the Mornington Peninsula, one of Australia’s foremost cool climate maritime wine growing regions. Kooyongs’ meticulous sustainable viticulture and sensitive minimalist winemaking produces site-expressive wines of detail and structure. All wines are estate grown, vinified and bottled. Kooyong Chief Winemaker, Glen Hayley’s winemaking philosophy is driven by authenticity; wine that speaks of place, preserving the character of the fruit and celebrating the vineyard in which it was grown. It is the fine balance between scrupulous attention to detail and minimal intervention that allows wine to fully express provenance. Glen’s passion for natural fermentation techniques extends beyond wine to sour beer, cider and fermented food.
