Enjoy the comforts of our luxury Mercedes vehicles. Unlike others we include a chef-prepared lunch in our tour price. There are no hidden extra costs. We stop at 4 cellar doors and vary the cellar doors weekly. We also take requests. Our small group tours maximize interaction within the group and with the cellar doors. We are not just visitors to each stop - we are welcomed as friends. Our tours are relaxed, comfortable & easy-going and it doesn't matter if you have never tried a wine or if you are looking to stock you cellar with something unique - we try to ensure everyone enjoys our tour.

What a great winery tour that was extremely relaxing . We never felt rushed and a great selection of wineries were visited. We had a lovely lunch and Ben was a very knowledgeable and friendly tour guide. Highly recommend this tour and the company of Aging Barrel Tours.

This was easily one of the best wine tours I’ve ever experienced. Louise and Jens were incredible hosts, guiding us through a selection of outstanding wineries. What made it truly special was being introduced to the wines by the vineyard owners themselves—it added such a personal and memorable touch. If you’re planning a trip to Hobart, this is an absolute must-do. A perfect 10/10!
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful review. We’re thrilled to hear the tour was one of the best you’ve experienced — that truly means a lot to us.

Those personal connections and stories are exactly what we aim to highlight when curating our tours, and we’re so glad they made the day memorable for you. Thank you again for the perfect 10/10 recommendation. If your travels bring you back to Hobart, we’d be delighted to welcome you for another Tasmanian wine adventure.
Good selection of wineries and cheese place was quite good. Most wines were quite nice. Only down side 3rd winery we went to the person doing tasting didn’t drink wine and matched them with lollies. Tour guide Ben was really good also offering information about the wineries and area. Would recommend to others Looking for a wine tour.
Thank you so much for joining us on the Coal River Valley Wine Tour and for sharing your feedback. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the winery selection, the cheese stop, and Ben’s hosting — he takes great care in sharing local insights and ensuring a smooth, enjoyable day. We appreciate your note regarding the third winery. Each venue has its own unique style of presenting tastings, and while they don’t pair wines with lollies, some hosts do use creative descriptors to help guests explore flavour profiles. Your feedback is helpful as we continue refining our curated itinerary to ensure every stop reflects the experience we aim to deliver. Thank you again for recommending our tour to others. We hope to welcome you back for another Tasmanian wine adventure soon.
What a fabulous wine tour! We have done many across Australia and overseas but this was definitely a stand out! Garren, our super guide and driver, was outstandingly knowledgeable and friendly. Great choice of wineries. High end, immaculate vehicle - extremely comfortable - made the day more enjoyable. Lovely small group. Highly recommend - don’t miss this tour!!!
Thank you so much, Liz! We’re delighted to hear our tour made such a strong impression. Guarin really enjoys sharing his knowledge, and we’re glad the wineries, vehicle, and small group setting all contributed to a great day. We appreciate your recommendation!
We had a fabulous day with Ageing Barrels recently. Everything was great. The bus was very modern and we had a small 8 person tour group. Couldn't have asked for a better tour guide than Ben. He was so helpful and informative about all our stops and Tasmania in general while on the drive. We highly recommend this tour.
Thank you for your kind words! We’re glad you enjoyed the small group tour, comfortable transport, and Ben’s helpful guidance throughout the day. We really appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you again soon!
The Vineyards were handpicked for excellence in not only the showcased wines but also in quality of presentation and beautiful surroundings, Lunch was spectacular and the hosts were amazing.
We try not offer an ordinary tour - we take great care in selecting different vineyards every week to showcase the wide variety of producers in Southern Tassie. So glad you appreciated this aspect of the day and thanks for the review
Great day, lots of good food and a variety of wine tasting. Helped by a beautiful sunny day and good company.
Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so glad to hear you had a fantastic day filled with great food, a variety of wines, and plenty of sunshine (the perfect combination!). It’s always a bonus when the company is just as good as the wine! We hope to welcome you back for another memorable day soon.
