Holm Oak Pinots feature in Gourmet Traveller WINE Magazine
Both the 2009 and 2010 Pinot have been reviewed in the past two editions of the Gourmet Traveller WINE magazine. In the October/November edition our 2010 Pinot Noir was rated in the top 25 Pinot's in Tasmania by an expert tasting panel, a great accolade considering there are over 150 Pinot Noir producers in Tasmania. Sophie Otten described our Pinot as having "good even balance, and full soft flavours, with sufficient fleshiness, cranberry flavour and lift"
In the latest edition Ken Gargett has includuded Holm Oak in his great wine drives and featured our 2009 Pinot in his wines for the boot. Ken described our cellar door as "an exciting and often surprising place to visit" and wrote that the 2009 Pinot Noir "is a bright and and flavoursome PInot Noir with cherry pit notes. It has supple texture with pleasing savoury characters. There is good acidity, fine tannins and lots of length." Unfortunately, we have run out of the 2009 Pinot Noir; however, we have kept some for our wine club members. Check out our wine club page to see how you can get your hands on some.
