2017 Domaine A Stoney Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc, Coal River Valley

The Stoney Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc originates from ancient cool climate terroir in Tasmania’s historic Stoney Vineyard. This is a wine of bright fruit and true varietal character, crafted with minimal intervention winemaking. It is fermented in stainless steel to retain pure varietal typicity and matured for 6 months on fine lees for wonderful texture. Light Straw in colour, with aromatics of passionfruit, lychee and citrus with subtle flinty notes. Crafted in a full bodied, textural style with exuberant passionfruit and grapefruit characters supported by fresh natural acidity. Benefits from short term cellaring and pairs well with seafood and Asian inspired dishes.

“The little brother of Domaine A's iconic cabernet is wonderfully characterful and enduring. Brimming with all the fragrance of the
lavender that lines this vineyard, this is a vintage of compact, crunchy blackcurrants backed with a long-enduring framework of firm, fine tannins, dark chocolate oak and lingering acid line. One of the greats.”
