Small Wonder

Nestled within native bushland on the Western Ridge of the Tamar Valley is where you'll find us. We're a 35-minute drive from Launceston and a one-hour drive from the Spirit of Tasmania ferry terminal in Devonport, and it's worth the trip whichever way you are coming.

Our 20-hectare vineyard was originally planted in 1998 and converted to Certified Organic in 2022. The vines span a diverse array of soil types, with our aromatic whites – Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, and Pinot Gris – preferring the grey sand at the top of the vineyard. Our Chardonnay and Pinot Noir plantings transition gently down the slope, with grey silt loam tending to red silt clay loam and Ferris mudstone. We now also farm a second 24-hectare vineyard in the Coal River Valley, currently in transition to organic certification, further deepening our understanding of Tasmania's cool-climate expressions.

Completed in January 2024, our Tamar Valley winery was designed and built with energy efficiency and environmental credibility in mind. With a state-of-the-art wastewater treatment system, rainwater harvesting and storage, solar panel-powered electricity generation, and on-site electric vehicle charging stations, every aspect of the facility was designed with sustainability and functionality at the forefront. Not to mention the surrounding land and vegetation management, which focused on preserving existing bushland and establishing additional natural habitat areas to encourage biodiversity. Sourced exclusively from our estate vineyards, all wines are made and bottled on-site at our Tamar Valley winery with a light touch and a deep respect for Tasmania's diverse cool-climate sites.

Small Wonder wines truly reflect the unique characteristics of the Tasmanian wine landscape, shaped by site, season, and a light winemaking touch. They show freshness, detail, and vivacity, offering a one-of-a-kind tasting experience. We invite you to join us for a relaxed tasting, gourmet platter or guided winery tour, all while soaking in the stunning views from our Small Wonder Cellar Door. Our new Cellar Door and Restaurant is underway, set to open in 2026.
