Description
The Holyman family had been involved in vineyards in Tasmania for 20 years, but Joe Holyman's career in the wine industry, first as a sales rep, then as a wine buyer, and more recently working in wineries in NZ, Portugal, France, Mount Benson and Coonawarra, gave him an exceptionally broad-based understanding of wine. In 2004 Joe and wife Lou purchased the former Rotherhythe Vineyard, which had been established in 1986, and set about restoring it to its former glory. There are two ranges: the Stoney Rise wines, focusing on fruit and early drinkability, and the Holyman wines, with more structure, more new oak and the best grapes, here the focus on length and potential longevity.

Tasting Notes
From estate-grown fruit planted in 1986 on Joe and Lou Holyman’s Gravelly Beach vineyard, this pale-straw Chardonnay showcases aromas of white peach, citrus, and nectarine, with subtle notes of struck match, oatmeal, almond meal, white flowers, and a touch of almond paste. The palate is beautifully balanced, with ample tension and a fine texture that brings lively acidity, minerality, and briny complexity to a long, energetic finish. Date: Sept 2024 Rating: 97 Points & Special Value Star, James Halliday Wine Companion.
An exceptional Holyman Chardonnay, featuring delicate struck match, oyster shell, white nectarine, lemon zest, grapefruit, and a light hint of cinnamon oak and vanilla nougat. This wine offers crisp, cool acidity, a hint of saline, lemon biscuits, grapefruit, green melon, a touch of nougat, a chalky texture, and a lengthy, spicy finish. Best enjoyed after another year. Date: Sept 2024 Rating: 96 Points; Gary Walsh, The Wine Front.
