Stoney Vineyard Pinot Noir 2024

The Stoney Vineyard at Campania in Tasmania's Coal River Valley was first planted in 1973 by George and Priscilla Park, making it the oldest vineyard in the Coal River Valley. In 1989, Swiss couple Peter and Ruth Althaus — Peter a former senior IBM executive — acquired the vineyard after an international search for cool-climate Cabernet terroir, and expanded the plantings through 1990. The Althauses developed the Domaine A label, building the estate's international reputation across the 1990s and 2000s. In 2018 they sold Domaine A to David Walsh (proprietor of Moorilla, the Hobart estate adjacent to the Mona art museum).

The estate's headline wine, the Stoney Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, is a 90% Cabernet blend with Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot — a Bordeaux-pattern red made cool-climate with Tasmanian acidity. The wine has been continuously included in the Langtons Classification of Australian Wine for years. The Domaine A Sauvignon Blanc has been cited by Australian wine critics as one of the country's most distinctive Sauvignon expressions; Lady A is a Sauvignon Blanc reserve cuvée.
