Tasmania's standout 33.

An independent voice for the regions we love.

Tasmania

Australia's cool frontier.

Tasmania is Australia's coolest wine climate — sparkling, Pinot Noir and Riesling country across the Tamar Valley, Coal River and East Coast. This guide ranks its producers on the public record: James Halliday star ratings, wine-show trophies and regional reputation. We discover and champion — we never sell.

The complete ranked directory, grouped by wine region. Every winery links straight to the source. Wineries shown without a Halliday rating simply have no publicly confirmed rating in our research — not a judgement of quality.
