Pooley Wines
Tasmania · Australia
Perched on the slopes of Butchers Hill in Cambridge, offers one of the most picturesque settings in Tasmania’s Coal River Valley. From this elevated position, the vineyard commands breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape, with gently rolling hills, expansive vineyards, and the dramatic backdrop of Mount Wellington to the west. The scenery here is simply stunning, with the valley stretching out below, framed by the soft curves of the hills and the patchwork of local farmland.
