It’s a Bordeaux-esque blend, cabernet at its base, that presents in a classic and distinctly comforting and familiar style. Leather-sheathed blackberry and blackcurrant fruits with hints of baking spices, tobacco, cedar, briar, bay leaf, licorice and earth. Compact fine tannins and G\u0026amp;T-like acidity provide frame and propulsion, finishing with gentle cassis, sous bois, spice and tobacco pouch tones.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout This Wine\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis special pre-release Petit A is drawn from the 2018 vintage, a year noted for excellent fruit quality and well suited to expressing the character of Stoney Vineyard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt around a firm Cabernet Sauvignon core, the wine has already spent three years in oak and bottle, giving early structure and depth while retaining the capacity for long-term cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout the Winery\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDomaine A is one of Tasmania’s most respected wine estates, founded with the ambition to produce age-worthy, Old World–inspired wines in the cool climate of southern Tasmania. Its eleven-hectare Stoney Vineyard, first planted in 1973 in the Coal River Valley, is defined by ancient Jurassic dolerite soils, a temperate maritime climate and a long growing season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estate’s philosophy is uncompromising: fruit is never rushed, yields are tightly controlled and wines are released only when they are ready. Alongside its flagship Domaine A wines, the Stoney Vineyard and Petit A bottlings offer different expressions of the same vineyard and philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVintage: 2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrape Variety: Bordeaux Blend (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion: Coal River Valley \/ Tasmania \/ Australia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSweetness: Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Vic Liquors Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52879593767275,"sku":"SK66852515","price":58.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/5483\/8635\/files\/2018DomaineAPetitaTasmaniaCabernet750ml_7a173f48-3fbb-4512-bd6b-a38514ef23e4.png?v=1780389403","url":"https:\/\/kingsburycellars.com.au\/products\/2018-domaine-a-petit-a-tasmania-cabernet-750ml","provider":"Kingsbury Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
