Talk about the best of the best!! 🙌 For the first time ever, an Australian has just won the award of global Winemaker of the Year (Sparkling). And they just happen to be based right here in Tassie. Congratulations to Ed Carr! And thank you for being one of the innovators behind the massive growth in our wine industry. Ed’s win is only the 2nd time in 40 years that someone outside of the Champagne region of France has won the award. What an effort! Well done Ed! House of Arras

Tassie is known for quite a few things – including its wine, of course. Our hardworking wine producers only have one chance a year to harvest their precious grapes after tirelessly managing them across the year through whatever the season brings (sun, rain, hail, frost, drought, floods – sometimes all of the above). This year the wine grape harvest broke a few records (applauses at the end); • The 13th largest region by volume, yet the 5th most valuable (up from 10th most valuable last year) • A textbook-perfect season which will produce around 14 million bottles of delicious Tassie wine, up 36% in volume on the previous vintage. • Wine grape prices averaging $3,674 per tonne, up 9% on last year In summary – the best Tassie vintage this year!
