Your gateway to the Best of Tasmanian Wines,
hand-picked by Joe Lenck
… focusing on small and medium sized wineries from Tasmania, Australia and Internationally.
Hi, I’m Joe and I’m glad you stopped by, because if you’re like me and you love sharing good wines, then I’m here to help increase your strike rate of finding memorable wines, more often.
Stick with me for a while , as I present you with quality wines, that are predominantly made by small and medium sized producers, where great wines begin in the vineyard.
Wine Tasting- I am working with venues for upcoming events. We are starting a new relationship for our Seasonal tasting and we are excited to announce our next tasting will be at the very stylish Hobart RACV Hotel in Collins Street on Saturday the 4th of October. See our Events Page for more details and featured producers
Save the Date for Launceston We are super excited to be holding our first Launceston event with a Long Lunch at one of my favourite Restaurants, Stelo at Pierre’s. 4 delicious courses with guest winemaker Matthias Utzinger and James Brawley from Any Road Wines. it’s happening on Saturday the 8th of November (more details to come soon)
Champagne Day Tasting, Friday the 24th of October. Save the date for this one too. Last year was our inaugural event at the Hanging Gardens and it was a huge success, so we are putting a great line up of the best of Tassie Sparkling, alongside some fabulous Champagnes. Don’t miss this one for your chance to see how our bubbles sit comfortably next to our french cousins.
Join our Bud Club Subscription. We have just release our new Spring quarter Bud Club 6pk. I personally select the wines for your enjoyment and they represent great value at $119 per pack. Select your choice of All Whites, All Reds or Mixed R&W
Wine Bottle Candles , are a new side hussle for my wife and I. We thought it would be a great way to upcycle those special bottles, rather then throw them in the bin. I do the cutting and poslishing and Felicity has created the individual scents to reflect the wines flavour profile, Check the range availabe here
We have about 400 wines available through our Shop for browsing your favourite wine styles
Cheers
Joe
