Glaetzer-Dixon Family Winemakers has once again been named the best tasting experience in Southern Tasmania by Gourmet Traveller Wine Magazine.

One of Tasmania’s most highly awarded winemakers, Nick Glaetzer has transformed an old ice factory on the edge of Hobart’s CBD into the state’s first urban winery and tasting room.

A sixth generation vigneron hailing from the Barossa Valley where his family runs the eponymous Glaetzer Wines, Nick moved to Tasmania in 2005 and is a winner of the Jimmy Watson Memorial Trophy and Gourmet Traveller’s Young Winemaker of the Year award.
