Founder & Viticulturalist

About

Scorpo has for some time sat comfortably within the highest rank of Australian cool-climate winegrowers, quietly composing excellent wines and steadily raising the bar year upon year. The planning, planting, nurturing and honing of the vineyard absorb the attention of trained horticulturist and landscape architect Paul Scorpo. The process of perfecting the site continues, with closer plantings and more precise clonal selections the latest developments. The wines are consistently imbued with nuance, depth and texture. They are wines which - without ever raising their voice - resonate equally with the mind and senses.

Winemakers

About

Onannon founder, co-owner and winemaker Will Byron is redefining what Mornington Peninsula wine can be. Over two decades of winemaking on the peninsula, he has gained a more precise understanding of the region’s subregions and sites than almost anyone else. His grasp of geographical nuance is supercharged by an intuitive sense of the salient aromatic, flavour and structural characteristics of each batch of fruit, and the courage to act on those instincts. His composed, balanced wines are always long on texture, excitement and personality. They milk the Peninsula’s cool, maritime conditions for slow-ripened flavour and coastal energy, while always dishing up a deliciously intriguing sense of self.

With Will concentrating solely on Onannon from 2021, spectacularly particular single-site bottlings are emblematic of the extra detail across the range. Onannon 2.0 formally launched in 2026, with the amicable withdrawal of Will’s initial founding partners. The arrival of co-owner Pete Finnegan into the fold, plus a custom-built winery on Pete’s supreme Robinson Vineyard in Tuerong, promises a glorious new flourishing for this modern Peninsula flag-bearer.
