Aroma

Fresh raspberry, strawberry, and subtle spice.

Palette

Silky with cherry and strawberry fruit, supported by soft tannins and juicy acidity. Bright, fresh, and easy-drinking, with a lingering fruity finish.

Pairings

Its lighter build and bright acidity pair especially well with smoked salmon, where the acid cuts nicely through the oiliness of the fish. Also good with charcuterie or a simple roast chicken.

Wine Making

This Pinot made to be a lighter more fruit driven style of Pinot with some underlying spicy complexity. To achieve this, we have picked the fruit at moderate sugar levels when the fruit displays lovely fresh strawberry and cherry characters. The fruit is then de-stemmed and fermented on skins for 10 days. Specific yeast which are known to enhance fruit aromatics are used to conduct the ferment. Following fermentation, the wine was matured in tank prior to being bottled.

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.
