Sinapius
(sin-ay-pi-us)
Sinapius (sin-ay-pi-us) Vineyard is in the heart of the Pipers Brook wine region in Northern Tasmania, above the banks of the Pipers Brook. The vineyard, formerly known as Golders Vineyard, was purchased By Vaughn Dell and Linda Morice in 2005. Both had spent time studying and working in the Hunter Valley, Yarra Valley and Margaret River and dreamt of returning home to Tasmania to grow Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in what they believe is the premier location in Australasia. In order to maintain the highest quality, they aim to cap production at a maximum of 1,000 cases, from three hectares of close planted vineyard. Sadly, we lost Vaughn suddenly in 2020 but Linda is excelling under the watchful eyes of friends Joe Holyman & Peter Dredge.

The wine
Sinapius continues to be recognised among Tasmania’s finest wines. Linda and Vaughn’s efforts to build their decade-long foundations, application of knowledge and authenticity of values are evidence that hard work really does pay off.
