The perfumed, flowery bouquet leads into a mouthwatering blast of citrus sorbet and flinty acidity. A wine that underlines the belief that Tasmanian riesling and pinot noir are the two best varietal wines of the island.

The Holm Oak Riesling is a fine and delicate wine with lovely aromatics and a minerally/slatey palate. The nose displays aromas of lime leaf and jasmine with some spiced apple characters, whilst the palate shows mineral characteristics with fantastic fruit purity and light, flinty acidity.
Riesling is a great match for Tasmanian oysters. The citrusy acidity in the wine is like squeezing fresh lemon juice on the oyster enhancing their natural briney flavour.
