Guidebook for Blairgowrie
Drinks & Nightlife
Trofeo Estate is a relatively new winery on the Mornington Peninsula as is therefore not over crowded like some of the more popular wineries are. The winery is located on a beautiful open property with the restaurant overlooking a dam and grass area. You can either dine in renovated shed or outside area.
Trofeo Estate wines are quite unique in that they are made in terracotta pots - definitely worth checking out for a wine tasting or lunch/dinner.

Parks & Nature
Beautiful walk right to the end of Point Nepean where you will be able to see both the ocean and the bay. There is heaps to see and explore throughout the walk including what remains of Port Nepean which was a critical part of Victoria's defences from the 1880s until 1945. Allow plenty of time to explore. Make sure you pack water and sunscreen and best to wear activewear.
