Flowers, lime, white peach, a little stuck match, fennel tips, and attractive cinnamon and almond oak. Good energy present in the wine, with a lively crunch and flinty texture, almond meal and green olive, finish is long and tight, with a gentle grapefruit pith bitterness as it goes. Perhaps a little finer and tighter this vintage, but none the worse for that.
96 points. Gary Walsh, The Wine Front

Notes
I have said it before, and I will say it again: the 2019 harvest will go down as one of the best. A beautifully balanced growing season led to an easy harvest of pristine fruit.
As usual this fruit for our Holyman Chardonnay comes from our 0.75Ha block of 34-year-old Chardonnay. Pressed straight to 100% new-oak 500-litre puncheons for ferment and maturation. Once the natural ferment begins we stir the barrels twice a day to keep the lees suspended and moving around in the ferment. It spends nine months in oak and is then racked and bottled.
A hint of struck match and grapefruit on the nose. The palate is lean and refreshing, but there is underlying power and structure which will develop with time. Hints of oak and some almond on the palate, but the finish is long and structured with our signature fresh natural acidity. It’s the Coche-Dury of Tasmania. – Lou and Joe Holyman
