Your charming Localing host will collect you from your hotel for a day of fine wine, gourmet indulgence, and exclusive tasting experiences in northern Tasmania. Today is all about exceptional cool-climate wines and the craftsmanship behind them, with an itinerary designed for those who appreciate the finer things.

First Stop | Josef Chromy – Where Tradition Meets Innovation

Begin the day at Josef Chromy, a winery that embodies Tasmania’s evolution into a world-class wine region. Set on rolling vineyards with a charming lakeside estate, this award-winning winery is the vision of Josef Chromy, a pioneer of Tasmanian viticulture.

Enjoy a premium guided sparkling tasting and pastry board that showcases the balance and purity of cool-climate wines. As you sip, hear the story of Chromy’s journey from post-war Czech refugee to one of Australia’s most celebrated wine producers. 

Next Stop | A Gourmet Tasmanian Lunch

For lunch, choose between two indulgent options:

• A long, leisurely lunch at Timbre, where fresh, seasonal Tasmanian produce is elevated into an ever-changing menu of wood-fired dishes.
• A private winery experience, where you’ll settle in for a slow, gourmet meal expertly paired with a selection of wines from the estate.

Final Stop | House of Arras – A Celebration of Sparkling Excellence

Your afternoon unfolds at House of Arras, Australia’s most awarded sparkling wine producer. Crafted by Ed Carr, a legend of the industry, Arras wines rival the great houses of Champagne, offering complexity and elegance shaped by Tasmania’s pristine conditions.

Join an exclusive hosted experience, beginning with a glass of their current release as you learn the story of House of Arras and its pioneering role in Tasmanian winemaking. Stroll through the vineyard, passing some of the region’s oldest Chardonnay vines, and gain insight into the unique terroirs that make Tasmanian sparkling so special.

Settle into a private outdoor tasting area with sweeping vineyard views for a vertical tasting of Museum Cellar EJ Carr Late Disgorged Editions. This rare experience includes back-vintage releases aged for at least 13 years on yeast lees, collectively totalling an extraordinary 40 years of tirage. Paired with a gourmet Tasmanian picnic hamper, this experience is as indulgent as it is exclusive.

For the ultimate privilege, those seeking the highest level of exclusivity may have the chance to be hosted by Ed Carr himself, offering rare insights from Australia’s most awarded sparkling winemaker.

5:30 PM | Return to Launceston

With your palate well and truly satisfied, enjoy the scenic journey back to Launceston, reflecting on a day of world-class wine and gourmet indulgence.
