The house

About Apsley Gorge.

Apsley Gorge is a small Tasmanian east-coast estate at Bicheno, on the maritime side of the island. The vineyard works with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay on the relatively new east-coast viticultural sub-region — drier and warmer than the southern Coal River and Derwent valleys.

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.

Why Caravan backs Apsley Gorge

Tasmania

"Apsley Gorge sits on Tasmania's east coast at Bicheno, in a viticultural area still being defined relative to the better-known southern Tasmania zones. The east coast runs drier and warmer than the south, with the Tasman Sea moderating ripening — conditions that suit a more fruit-forward Pinot Noir style than the leaner south.
