Description:

Taste great Australian wine and cheese on your excursion to the historic village of Richmond and local vineyards. Spend some time at the Salamanca Market, enjoy tastings at premium vineyards in the Coal River Valley, and nibble on award-winning cheese at Wicked Cheese.

As you start this half-day tour, take a pleasant walk along Hobart's popular Salamanca Market before setting off to see the shops, galleries, and cafés in Richmond—home to some of the country's finest cool-climate wines and colonial architecture. At your first tasting in the cellar of Belmont House among the sandstone buildings of Pooley Wines, sip award-winning chardonnay, pinot, and riesling.

Along the way, stop at Puddleduck Vineyard to try Bubbleduck sparkling wine before visiting Coal River Vineyard. Here, gaze at the spectacular views of the bay and the valley while sipping premium wines. Then pause at the popular Wicked Cheese boutique to nibble on award-winning cheeses made from hormone-free and chemical-free milk of grass-fed cows before you return to Hobart.
