Helena Cross owns a small Battery Point wine bar and cellar-door tasting room where she leads afternoon tastings and makes the stock decisions herself. She believes understanding how maritime weather shapes a cool-climate riesling matters more than memorising vintage scores. Her account follows the choices behind her shelves as well as Tasmanian drinks she encounters beyond her own venue.
