Aroma

Lifted notes of red apple, citrus, strawberry, and Turkish delight, with hints of honey and buttered toast.

Palette

Dry and refreshing with vibrant intensity, showcasing citrus and red fruit flavours, complemented by a fine bead and a velvety texture. Crisp and clean, with lingering fruit and mineral notes.

Pairings

The bright red-fruit character and dry finish make it a versatile match, try it with charcuterie, soft cheeses or simply as an aperitif. Also pairs nicely with light seafood dishes like smoked salmon.

Wine Making

We hand harvest the Pinot Noir (50%) and Chardonnay (50%) when optimal acidity and flavour is reached. The fruit is then whole bunch pressed and fermented with a neutral yeast. A portion of the wine is transferred to barrel prior to the completion of primary fermentation. It underwent malolactic fermentation to soften the acidity and increase complexity. The wine was then tiraged to undergo traditional bottle fermentation, before spending time on lees for a period of 24 months prior to disgorging.

Meet the owners

Holm Oak sits on land with a genuinely unusual history, first planted to Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon in 1983 by Justice Edward Butler on a Tamar Valley property once owned by an architect with a passion for native timber. Winemaker Bec Duffy and her husband Tim, a viticulturist, bought the property from Bec's parents in 2013 and have run it ever since with a hands-on, honest approach that mirrors their own personalities. Known for pushing the boundaries of Pinot Noir in particular, Holm Oak has held a James Halliday Five Star rating and remains one of the Tamar Valley's most genuine family stories.

Tamar Valley

About the region

The Tamar Valley is Tasmania's oldest wine region, stretching from Launceston to the Bass Strait in the state's north. Its cool maritime climate and iron-rich soils create ideal growing conditions, and the numbers speak for themselves, home to over 30 family-owned wineries, the Tamar Valley accounts for more than a third of Tasmania's total wine production. Viticulture here goes back a long way too, with the first commercial vineyard established in the mid-1800s at Windermere, its cuttings even helping establish some of South Australia's earliest vineyards. Today, the Tamar Valley is celebrated for its Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling and sparkling wines, each one reflecting the region's exceptional terroir and winemaking heritage.
