Whether you’re a seasoned wine enthusiast or simply seeking a memorable weekend escape, Spring in the Vines is an invitation to celebrate the best of Tasmanian wine, food, and hospitality. “Visitors will have access to a wide range of producers across southern Tassie, including many that rarely open their doors to the public,” says Mark McNamara, Wine South President and owner of Merriworth Wines in Tea Tree. “It’s an event not to be missed, showcasing the season’s newly released wines and the diversity of our winemaking community.” Nathalie Urbain, Treasurer of Wine South, adds: “Spring in the Vines is a truly inclusive festival, bringing together vineyards, winemakers, and négociants This is a fabulous opportunity to enjoy the beauty of southern Tasmania winemaking in a most intimate and convivial way. Every winery in our expanding community is a destination worthy of the touring journey. As the event continues to grow, we anticipate record numbers of wine lovers.” Paul Laing, owner of Mapleton Vineyard, agrees: “It’s been an avenue for us to build our brand, get

our product out there and to connect directly with wine lovers. It’s a great weekend for both producers and visitors. Gemma Upton, Wine South Vice President, says the weekend is the perfect opporutnity for Tasmanians to find a drop they may have previously not known about. “What makes this event so special is the opportunity it gives to people to find hidden gems and explore different regions and vineyards, especially the ones they may not otherwise get to visit,” she says.
