There are two places of the most profound provenance along Coal River Valley called Belmont and Richmond, just a short drive northeast of Hobart. Both are a part of the early Australian experience, places of great historical import, sites that were selected during first settlement on the basis of their fertile endowments and promise of pastoral opulence. The vineyards Cooinda Vale and Butchers Hill were trained to yield a restricted harvest of the most exclusive Tasmania Riesling. Its prominent nose of indulgent perfumes, white jasmines, lemon zest and peach, a mesmerisingly mandarin palate, moreish and mineral.
