Priory Ridge Wines & tastings
Priory Ridges Estate nestled in the scenic East Coast of Tasmania, presents a distinctive collection crafted in the esteemed Burgundian style under the meticulous guidance of Brian Franklin of Apsley Gorge Vineyard. Basking in abundant sunshine, our vineyard stands as the most northerly gem amidst East Coast Tasmania's vineyards, while its unique placement atop a granite seam infuses our wines with a unique flavour profile. This exceptional terroir not only enriches but elevates the complexity and character of each wine we produce. Every grape is carefully handpicked, ensuring the creation of premium wines that gracefully mature in french oak barrels. Our cellar door is open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 11am - 4pm.
