What visitors say
Best chance to try new wines from smaller vineyards and to support the smaller producers!
Seeing vineyards which are not normally open.
There are so many different and great wines to try! Also, it is great to speak with the owners and winemakers in an informal setting.
Beautiful time in Tassie to be outside with the sweet smell of spring vines.
I've tasted many new wines today, including varieties I didn't know existed, and learned a lot about their production from the makers.
