TASTING NOTES FOR Holm Oak Pinot Gris Tasmania 2023

🍷 Appearance
Very pale straw with a faint green hue. Bright, youthful and vibrant in the glass.

👃 Aromas
Lifted and expressive, showing pear, nashi apple and citrus.
Hints of jasmine, white flowers and a subtle mineral edge add complexity.

👅 Palate
Fresh and lively, delivering flavours of pear, green apple and citrus with excellent purity.
A gently textured palate from wild fermentation adds depth, balanced by crisp natural acidity.

🍈 Texture & Finish
Silky and slightly textural through the mid-palate.
The finish is clean and zesty, with lingering orchard fruits and a refreshing mineral lift.

🍇 Overall Style
A classic cool-climate Tasmanian Pinot Gris—aromatic, fresh and finely balanced.
Combines bright fruit, floral lift and subtle texture with a crisp, mineral-driven finish.

🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with fresh seafood, scallops, prawns or Asian dishes. Also excellent with pork, light pasta and soft cheeses.

🥂 BBD Verdict
A vibrant, highly drinkable Pinot Gris that delivers freshness, texture and real Tasmanian character.
Perfect for mixed dozens where you want an aromatic white that consistently overdelivers.
