Our Review
In '01, Cate and Colin Arnold purchased the former Patrick Creek Vineyard. The vineyards now total 30ha: pinot noir (14 clones) remains the bedrock of the plantings, with other varieties including chardonnay, pinot gris, riesling and sauvignon blanc. Ownership has passed to son Justin and his wife Alicia (who runs the cellar door). Justin’s experience in the Yarra Valley (Coldstream Hills), Margaret River (Devil’s Lair) and Napa Valley (Etude) has paid dividends. -JAMES HALLIDAY

Information
Ghost Rock Wines is nestled among the rolling hills on the Central North Coast of Tasmania, 10 minutes from where the Spirit of Tasmania docks and an hour from both the city of Launceston and Cradle Mountain. The Cellar Door and Eatery overlook the original vineyard, with striking views of Bass Strait. The Cellar Door provides an opportunity to taste a variety of cool-climate wines, and the modern bistro focuses on local artisan produce, featuring the very best ingredients Tasmania has to offer. Bookings for lunch and tastings are essential www.ghostrock.com.au/Book-Now.
