coal valley vineyard - richmond road

Coal Valley Vineyard is a family winery passionate about making small quantities of great wine. Start with their sparkling. It has “the loveliest mousse of silky-soft minuscule bubbles anyone could hope for” (Tom Stevenson, the world authority on Champagne). And what might go well with their wines? Their delightfully crisp dry citrussy Riesling invites the best Tassie oysters. Spring Bay scallops or Rannoch quail are a delicious match with their golden chardonnay. A rack of lamb and a bottle of Coal Valley Vineyard pinot noir and you could stop right there … or you could just squeeze in some of the island’s fabulous cheeses with the TGR (a hint of sweet) Riesling.
You'll find coal valley at 257 Richmond Road, Richmond
