From Vineyard to Table — Tasmania on a Plate
Enjoy tastings of handcrafted cheeses, artisan truffles, sweet treats, and local preserves — each paired with Tasmanian honey or seasonal fruit pastes. Meet the makers behind these flavours and discover how Tasmania’s pristine environment shapes its world-class produce. Throughout the day, you’ll sample award-winning wines and locally sourced ingredients, with lunch as a standout feature: a relaxed two-course meal celebrating seasonal, farm-fresh Tasmanian cuisine.
Optional upgrades include wine pairing menus, sparkling on arrival, or extended whisky flights for true connoisseurs.
