Understated rendered building in a bush & vine setting. Lovely water feature and pretty outdoor table settings at the entrance and egg swing chairs on the patio to look out over the valley below
Boutique
Modern building with large windows providing great views over the valley. Relatively small tasting bench so more tailored to small numbers

Excellent, especially in providing cellaring recommendations for each wine as well as talking us through the range

Very nice feel at this cellar door, and the labels of the wines all have a local artists impression of local native animals that can be found in the vineyards. We understand these are especially popular with overseas visitors. This cellar door also participates in the mixed dozen freight scheme and is close to Launceston airport so is a great place to stop off and ship your last dozen wines home!
