Light straw in colour with lime green hues, this wine has dominant aromas of freshly squeezed lime and grassy notes while hints of crisp capsicum are still evident. Sweet lemon and lime flavours bring softness to the palate while hints of snow peas add a savoury aspect allowing the palate to flow into a long crisp finish.

This Riesling has the benefit of being fermented in a wooden Foudre (large format cask) it has a highly textural front palate of fruit and freshness and then follows a crisp balance of acidity. There is a natural fruit sweetness to this wine cleanly balanced by acidity to lift the back palate. This wine is in the sweeter style of Alsace, France and pairs well with spicy Asian dishes.

Holm Oak Wines craft delicious, small-parcel, cool-climate Tasmanian wines in the Tamar Valley. Their lovely Protegé Pinot has vibrant fresh fruit aromas and juicy acidity. It is a lighter style of Pinot, but has enough intensity to match well with Tasmanian smoked salmon. The acidity in the wine balances well with the oiliness of the fish

The welcoming ripe fruit notes of plums and dark cherries dusted with the scent of rose petals and red jelly crystals create an anticipatory air. With a little time to unwind, savoury notes of spice, earth and liquorice rise and deftly mingle with the supple fruit, soft tannins and oak’s vanilla and mocha seasonings. Whilst warm and rich, the palate’s elegance of structure, subtle complexities, balance and lasting flavour make for a compelling tasting experience. In style, structure and flavour, this wine inclines more to Syrah than Shiraz as it reflects and reveals its cool continental origin.
