TASMANIA
Home to some of the most pristine wilderness on the planet, it is no wonder that Tasmania’s reputation for producing high-quality premium wines is on the rise. Home to around 200 vineyards with a long viticultural history (records date from 1823), it is the home of premium Sparkling wine in Australia and also produces exceptional aromatic Chardonnay, Riesling and Sauvignon Blanc as well as premium Pinot Noir across its seven wine growing areas – Tamar Valley, North East, East Coast, North West, Derwent Valley, Coal River Valley and Huon/Channel area, which all combine to make up one controlled appellation. Other varieties that thrive in Tasmania include Pinot Gris, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Gewürztraminer.
