A family owned winery established by Shashi and Devendra Singh is a small-batch producer of premium cool-climate wines on the Mornington Peninsula.

Shashi manages their estate vineyard biodynamically and the three additional sites they work with on the Peninsula are all farmed organically or sustainably.

Winemakers Shashi and her son Rohit want each wine to tell the story of each site and the growing season. For them it is about minimising additions and being as gentle as possible during the winemaking process - wines are allowed to ferment with wild yeast, are unfiltered and unfined. In addition to making syrah, pinot noir and chardonnay the duo also make a range of vibrant skin-contact varieties.

The rustic and award winning cellar door overlooks the estate vineyard and is open every weekend from 11:00am to 5:00pm. Featured in 2022 as Gourmet Traveller's Best Small Cellar Door for Mornington.

Over the summer months Avani also hosts top Melbourne chef's for a series of pop-up up events. Keep an eye out!
