Small Wonder Wines

Small Wonder Wines is an organic-certified vineyard and cellar door at 530 Auburn Road, Kayena, perched on the western ridge of the Tamar Valley. The key draw for dog owners: well-behaved, leashed dogs are welcome in the outdoor lawn and garden areas while you taste.

Dog access. Dogs are permitted in the outdoor spaces, including the scenic lawn and garden areas, but must be kept on a leash at all times. Dogs are generally restricted to outdoor spaces, so plan for someone in your group to wait outside with your dog if tastings move indoors. Bring your own water bowls and treats, as these are not provided on site.

Known for. Small Wonder Wines is officially certified organic, with a focus on high-quality, hand-picked, cool-climate wines. Signature varieties include Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Chardonnay. Tastings often take place close to the working tanks and barrels in a relaxed, intimate setting, which means the indoor experience is part of a working winery rather than a separate lounge area.

Getting there. The address is 530 Auburn Rd, Kayena TAS 7270, on the western bank of the Tamar River. It is approximately a 40 to 45-minute drive from Launceston. Free, convenient on-site parking is located directly in front of the Cellar Door, and coach parking is also available.

Nearby with the dogs. The Tamar Valley wine region is compact, making it easy to visit a few cellar doors in a day. Head to nearby Rowella to explore Holm Oak Vineyards, Westella Vineyard, and Iron Pot Bay Vineyard. For a meal afterwards, Baringa Bar & Cafe in Exeter is a short drive away.

Small Wonder Wines is open daily from 11am to 4pm, giving you a clear window to plan your tasting around your travel schedule.
