Tasmania - Tamar Valley wine tasting

The Tamar Valley is the oldest and perhaps most developed wine region in Tasmania and is located in the north part of the island. In the small valley there are more than 30 wineries within driving distance of each other, coupled with some spectacular scenery along the way.  Had I had my way, I potentially might just have tried to visit every single winery in the Tamar Valley.  I have to admit that somewhere along our Tasmania journey I fell in love with their distinguished mineral flavored cool climate Sav Blancs.  Which are in some ways so similar to my all time favorite Marlborough NZ Sav Blancs but also have a unique taste all their own.  Thankfully Kingsley was level headed enough to limit us to a few of the best wineries in the area and we had a lovely afternoon sipping wine and eating (gf) crackers with local artisan cheeses and terrines.  We bought a few of our favorite bottles to take home and I plan to save them for a special occasion to remind us of our amazing Tasmanian holiday. 

Kingsley giving me the "this is the LAST winery" look.
