Legana TAS 7250
Australia
Legana Vineyard is located on the West Tamar, near Launceston in Northern Tasmania.
The Legana vineyard was the first established in the Tamar Valley, planted in 1966 by Graham Wiltshire, and provided the first Heemskerk wines. In 1983 Heemskerk moved to the Pipers River region, and Steven Hyde (Rotherhythe) leased the Legana vineyard until 1994. In May of that year Kurt and Kaye Beyer acquired the vineyard and began its rehabilitation.
It is now known as Velo, operated by Mary and Michael Wilson.
