Established in 1979 by Geoff and Susan Bell, Freycinet were early viticultural pioneers on the East Coast of Tasmania. Consistently delivering some of Tasmania's finest wines, these continue to be 100% grown, produced and bottled on the family-owned estate.
The 15 hectare vineyard is situated adjacent to the picturesque Freycinet Peninsula, (latitude 42 degrees), which is named in honour of the French explorer Louis de Freycinet, who chartered the region in 1802. The site is a warm sheltered one within the truly cool Tasmanian climate. The vineyards are meticulously hand tended to grow moderate yields of fully ripe healthy fruit.
The rustic winery houses 'state of the art' equipment to ensure wine quality is not lost. The wines are produced with great care, dedication and passion - they are a delicious liquid expression of our unique place on earth, the varieties and the season.
