2022 Holyman Project X Pinot Noir, Tamar Valley

100% whole bunch and matured in one new French oak puncheon. Bright ruby with precise, wild-eyed aromas of raspberry, wild strawberry and red cherry, as well as spice, amaro herbs, dried meats, turned earth, leaf litter, struck flint and stone. Meaty and super stony and savoury with a long, complex draw on the finish and a beautiful expression of pure cherry and red, plummy fruits.

Stoney Rise Wine Company is located in the heart of the Tamar Valley in Northern Tasmania, Australia. It is a family run  winery owned by Joe and Lou Holyman.

In 2004 we returned to Tasmania with our sights set on growing and producing the best Pinot Noir and Chardonnay we could. We purchased a vineyard that was planted in 1986 in the Tamar Valley, north of Launceston and set about doing just that. 2008 saw the construction of our winery on site.  We have expanded our vineyard in recent years with more Pinot Noir and a little bit of Gruner Veltliner and Trousseau.

We love all things vinous, we take our wines and what we do rather seriously albeit with relaxed personalities we try and have the most amount of fun possible.
