Pipers Brook Vineyard...

Pipers Brook Vineyard is one of Australia's leading producers of cool-climate wine. It specialises in fine Chardonnay, delicate Riesling and premium Pinot Noir under the Pipers Brook Vineyard label, and markets a similar range of early drinking wines under the Ninth Island label. It also exports to ten overseas countries.

The flagship wines, under the Pipers Brook Vineyard label, have received many accolades for their quality including the first listing of an Australian wine at the world-famous French restaurant, Troisgros, Roanne. The company's particular strength is its control over grape production with 95% of fruit intake grown in its own vineyards, located at 41 degrees South, in 10 locations on both sides of the Tamar River in Northern Tasmania.

To access Pipers Brook Vineyard from Launceston, travel North on Highway A8 to Bell Bay and turn right on to the Bridport Road (B82). Turn right at C818 and continue for 800 metres.

The vineyard is open daily from 10:00am to 5:00pm - it is closed on Christmas Day.
