Lovers of cool-climate wines might want to consider a trip to Tasmania for this year's Spring in the Vines festival.
Dozens of vineyards in Southern Tasmania will be open to visitors from from Friday, October 30, until Sunday, November 1, and many of them are only open to the public a handful of days a year.
The event is billed as a chance to meet with producers across the Derwent, Coal River Valley, Huon Valley and d'Entrecasteux Channel regions and taste their latest releases.
"We're ready for our largest event yet," say organsiers Wine South.
"We've had great early interest from many new and continuing vineyards to participate this year.
"We are seeing great representation across all regions and are expecting 2026 to be our largest Spring in the Vines to date."
There will be a range of accommodation partners for Spring in the Vines both in central Hobart and regionally, who will offer discounts of between 10-20% for wine-loving visitors.
There will also be rental car discounts if you are making a weekend of it, plus Hop On Hop Off bus tours.
Many producers will be offering live music and seasonal food on site and some be offering back vintages.
Others, like Trial Bay Estate, will invite guests to picnic in their lovely gardens.
