What Is Freycinet Vineyard, East Coast Original?
Updated
Freycinet Vineyard is a Tasmanian estate winery established in 1978, describing itself as an East Coast original and a pioneer of the region's fine wine potential. Its site serves two main purposes: an online shop for current-release wines and an information hub for visiting its cellar door on Tasmania's east coast. Everything it sells is grown, produced and bottled on its own estate.
What the winery is
The site presents Freycinet Vineyard as a family operation now spanning three generations, founded on the early recognition that Tasmania's east coast could produce fine wine. Its stated approach combines traditional old-world winemaking techniques with modern best practice, with the aim of making wines that express a specific place rather than a generic style.
Viticulture is described as a blend of tradition and current method, growing moderate crops of fully ripe fruit noted for unusual depth of colour and concentrated flavour. The "100% grown, produced and bottled on our estate" claim is the key fact if estate-grown provenance matters to you.
What you can buy
The New Releases section lists the 2025 vintage with prices in Australian dollars:
| Wine | Price (AUD) |
|---|---|
| 2025 Freycinet Vineyard Pinot Noir | $77.00 |
| 2025 Freycinet Vineyard Field Blend Rosé | $32.00 |
| 2025 Louis Pinot Noir | $43.00 |
| 2025 Louis Schönburger Riesling | $33.00 |
Each listing shows a regular price and a sale price of the same amount, with an add-to-cart option and a sold-out state. The "Louis" range sits below the estate-labelled Pinot Noir on price, which suggests a second or entry tier — useful if you want to compare before committing to the higher-priced bottling.
Visiting the cellar door
The cellar door is located at the heart of the vineyards and winery, and the site positions it as an attraction when travelling Tasmania's east coast. If you are planning a visit around the wine rather than just the purchase, this is the section to check, since it is the only on-site experience described.
Who it suits
- Buyers wanting estate-grown Tasmanian wine with a documented single-estate origin.
- Travellers on the east coast looking for a cellar door stop tied to the vineyard itself.
- Readers interested in Tasmanian wine history, given the 1978 founding and three-generation story.
If you need shipping destinations, delivery times, cellar door opening hours or tasting fees, the supplied page content does not cover them — check those directly on the site before relying on a visit or order.
