The House of Arras is a great producer of sparkling wine, both in the context of Australia and of the world. It is Australia’s most awarded sparkling wine producer, for good reason. For the past thirty years its chief winemaker, Ed Carr has made steadfastly sure that Arras is a wine name guaranteed to inspire both trust and joy. The House of Arras was raised by the Hardy wine company, continued by iterations of the Accolade wine group, and purchased more recently by Handpicked Wines. In the face of hope, excitement, investment, change and uncertainly the House of Arras sparkling wines have never wavered, and have never er been anything other than superb. The House of Arras is a champion of Tasmania, and of wine, and of the miracle that is sparkling wine.
