Fun and fabulous sums up the day!! Celebrating Julia’s 30th birthday and a celebration it was. Starting at Nocton vineyard the group were treated to a warm welcome of wonderful wines and a prize draw was fruitful for one of our lucky tour members. Then to Puddleduck where the group settled in for a Stemware tasting followed by lunch. Our last stop of the day proved a hit with the crowd who took the winery tour with wine in hand. A sprinkle of rain pushed everyone under cover which was the perfect excuse to enjoy a few glasses of wine but didn’t stop a venturous few from jumping on the vineyard tractor for a photo op!! A great day with a great group on a wine tour from Hobart through the Coal River Valley!!

Our first stop of the day today on our Coal River Valley Wine Tour from Hobart our guests got to taste a Chenin Blanc, the new kid on the block from Nocton Vineyard and the first of its kind in Tasmania.  The team at Ageing Barrel Tours have had a sneak peak and taste of the wine prior to its official release a few weeks ago – and we give it the 👍💖.

So many beautiful Vineyards visited today – great memories made and new wines discovered – 👌😇

Tasmania shone today, the blue sky and sunshine set the tone for a fabulous, scenic drive up the East Coast from Hobart. The green valley’s and picturesque water views set the scene on today’s East Coast Wine Tour. The group were in great spirits, made even better by our first stop at Craigie Knowe with beautiful wines and cheese platters. Tastings in the sun on the Freycinet deck kept the spirits high. On to Springvale for wine and gin tastings before a devine 3 course lunch at Springvale’s Mel’s Kitchen. Milton’s vineyard proved a lovely setting for the last tasting of the day.

With some singalongs and laughs, the good energy lasted all the way home and closed out a fantastic East Coast Tour!
