As a purely sparkling wine house, Jansz Tasmania is one of the very few Tasmanian specialists solely devoted to the art of sparkling wine growing. The Jansz Vineyard is blessed with a maritime climate moderated by its close proximity to the ocean. These environs are ideal for the slow ripening of fruit, developing intense yet delicate and elegant flavours and lingering acidity so essential to creating exceptional sparkling… are your taste buds tingling yet

Award winning Jansz Vigneron, Jen Doyle, would love the pleasure of your company to take you on a sparkling journey that is quintessentially Jansz Tasmania. With accolades including 2017 Australian Women in Wine Viticulturist of the Year and 2018 Royal Agricultural Society of Tasmania Vineyard of the Year, Jen is well versed in the terroir that makes the Pipers River region such a special place to create world-class sparkling wine.
