Tamar Valley Wine, Tasmania"Charming wineries in a perfect setting" The Tamar Valley wine Route is only about half an hour from Launceston making it an ideal place to explore whilst you are in Launceston. There is a wine route which is a loop around the Tamar River that you can easily drive in a day, with a stop off for lunch. Most places can provide you with a map that marks the route but its well signposted along the highway. Best wines of the region are Pinot Noir, Riesling and some great sparkling wines which all suit the cool climate. 
Which Wineries to visitVineyards in the Tamar Valley worth visiting are:- If you get wined out then why not head to Seahorse World at Beauty Point (north of Beaconsfield on the A7) - a must if you like seahorses.
Where to stayGiven it's proximity to Launceston, it's best to stay in Launceston itself rather than the Tamar Valley Wine Region Whilst there are plenty of hotels, Launceston has some lovely B&B's that have created a very oldy worldy feeling with lots of modern twists.
