You are invited to the World Cup Wine Series held at The Rocks Mornington.

Quealy, Mornington Peninsula, AUS Vs Spada, Verona. IT
The Rocks – Mornington Tuesday June 30th 5.30pm.

Quealy’s wine making methods are inspired from Northern Italy where Kevin travelled in his early winemaking days, inspiration coming from skin contact varietals and pinot grigio from Friuli.
We continue to champion these wines, growing and producing organic rare small batch Italian varietals from our home vineyard in Balnarring.

Throughout the evening, guests will enjoy a four-course menu matched with a selection of premium wines, while hearing directly from Andrea from the Cantina of Spada and Kevin & Kathleen of Quealy about their vineyards, philosophies, and the stories behind each bottle.

Redmondo 2022 is an outrageous method traditional sparkling.

Barely ripe Moscato Rosa, picked as hard pink berries to yield the crunchiest acid and the most delicate perfume.

Entirely made at the winery, allowing zero sulphur and quite a heavy load of lees to autolysis in the bottle, adsorbing the pink colour and releasing complex flavours.

Unexpected. Deliciously soft zero sulphur, bone dry fine sparkling wine.

Freshly disgorged for your pleasure this Kings Birthday weekend.

Moving to our more eccentric, futuristic, iconoclastic styles. Turbul Moscato Giallo 2023 is a wine you must taste to believe.

The smell of lychee, marmalade orange rind and the immediate sniff of fairy floss.

The palate is both dense as honey and yet elegant. There is nothing else like it in Australia.

Available online or visit our cellar door this Kings Birthday weekend to grab yourself a bottle to enjoy.
