There are wines that show you a region, and then there are wines that show you a single piece of ground. The Landslide is the latter. From Home Hill's most prized Huon Valley block, this 2024 is darker and more brooding than the Estate, dark chocolate, damson plum, and liquorice on the nose, with a depth that takes time to fully reveal itself. Eight months in oak has added structure and gravitas without softening its edges. The palate is dense and layered, with firm tannins and a finish that goes on and on. This is a wine to cellar, to save for a special occasion, or to open now with something worthy of it. Pair with slow roasted venison, beef short rib, or aged hard cheese. Drink now through 2035.

Tasting Notes

The name Landslide comes from a landslip that occurred on our property thirty years ago. Dark ruby in colour with aromas of dark chocolate, dark cherries, damson plums &,liquorice. The middle palate has bright acidity, & seductive berry flavours. Juicy in the mouth with rich sweet fruit & spice. Easy drinking, gentle soft tannins & a long layered silky finish. The wine has been on oak for 8 months.

Winemaking

The wine was aged for 9 months in French oak barrels, with 2% new oak, to subtly enhance its structure without overwhelming the fruit. This careful oak integration allows the wine to retain its elegant profile and balance, while ensuring the soft tannins and savoury finish are beautifully framed.

About the Vineyard

The vineyard was planted out in 1992 with Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Sylvaner grapes. The grey loam, high-clay soil and reliable rainfall provide excellent growing conditions for these varieties.

The Huon Valley sits on the same degree of latitude as Bordeaux in France (albeit forty-three degrees south of the equator rather than north). These regions share a similar climate, with winters featuring fog, frost and snow, and an abundance of spring rain. This allows for the slow ripening of fruit during warm months and the perfect conditions for cool climate wine to be produced.

Huon Valley

The Huon Valley is Tasmania’s southernmost wine region, and by extension, the southernmost wine region in all of Australia.

Following the winding path of the Huon River from Lake Pedder to the D'Entrecasteaux Channel, this region offers a unique cool-climate growing environment. The north-facing vineyards are sheltered from the cold southerly winds, benefiting instead from a maritime-influenced climate.

The gentle warmth of summer allows for a slow, extended ripening season, resulting in high-quality Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and sparkling wines.

This extended growing period enhances the complexity and finesse of the wines produced here, making the Huon Valley an ideal region for crafting elegant, cool-climate varieties.
