Tasmanian Wineries and Vineyards Home Page Tasmanian Vineyards and Wineries. Is an attempt to offer a centralised and accurate data base of Wine production within Tasmania. The only detailed information used is that supplied by an individual Winery or Vineyard.
Every effort is made to verify the accuracy of general information.
Where opinions are offered, they are those of the authors. The history of the grape in Tasmania is mostly a recent one. Several plantings in the 19th. Century petered out and it wasn't until the early 1970's with the establishment of Pipers Brook vineyard, the trial plot of Heemskerk and the growth of Moorilla beyond the hobby stage that the modern times of Tasmanian wine was initiated. The variety of producers matches the variety of grapes grown and the industry has much to offer the consumer and visitor.
