Brisbane's strategic location in Southeast Queensland makes it the ideal starting point for exploring Australia's most diverse wine regions. Within 1-3 hours' drive, wine enthusiasts can experience everything from cool-climate Granite Belt Shiraz to tropical Mount Tamborine fruit wines, all while enjoying Queensland's spectacular scenery and renowned hospitality.
While many Australians think of Barossa Valley or Margaret River when planning wine tours, Queensland's wine regions offer something truly unique. The Granite Belt, sitting at high altitude with distinctive granite soils, produces cool-climate wines that rival southern regions. With over 40 cellar doors, boutique family wineries, and award-winning wines, Queensland deserves its place among Australia's premier wine destinations.
Since 2015, Cooee Tours has been introducing Brisbane locals and visitors to Queensland's exceptional wine regions. Our small group philosophy (maximum 12 guests) ensures every tour feels personal and intimate.

Cooee Tours is committed to sustainable tourism practices. We partner with family wineries who practice sustainable viticulture, support local food producers, and minimize our environmental impact. Our small group sizes reduce carbon footprint while ensuring quality experiences.

🍷 Local Knowledge Tip: Queensland wines are best experienced in person. Many boutique wineries produce limited quantities not available in retail stores. A wine tour is your chance to taste exclusive releases, meet the winemakers personally, and purchase wines you can't find anywhere else. Plus, many wineries offer tour-only discounts of 10-20% off cellar door prices!
