And while the Wine Centre refurbishment breathes new life into their already acclaimed cellar door experience (2021 saw Crittenden Estate awarded Best Large Cellar Door, Mornington Peninsula in the Gourmet Traveller Wine Australia’s Best Cellar Door Awards), continuing to craft the best possible wine is at the heart of family’s endeavours.
