The 2024 season was warmer than the preceding vintage, giving the wine additional richness and power while preserving the freshness and balance characteristic of the site. Fermentation incorporates approximately 70% whole bunches, bringing additional structure, aromatic lift and savoury complexity to the Pinot Noir. Wild yeast fermentation follows a one-week cold soak designed to gently draw colour and tannin from the grape skins. At just 12% ABV, the wine combines impressive flavour concentration with a distinctly poised, cool-climate profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDark cherry, raspberry and plum form the fruit core, accompanied by mint, cinnamon, florals, mushroom, tea and subtle earthy notes. The palate is medium-bodied and tightly composed, with fine but firm tannins providing definition and a mineral quality running through the wine. Fresh acidity maintains tension against the richer fruit of the warm 2024 vintage, while restrained oak contributes additional structure and spice. Savoury notes of forest floor, mushroom and Earl Grey tea add complexity without obscuring the clarity of the Pinot Noir fruit. The finish is long and focused, suggesting strong potential for further development in bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Fragrant, savoury and finely detailed\u003cbr\u003eDark cherry, raspberry and cranberry with rose petals, mint, cinnamon, forest floor, subtle smoky oak and earthy complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Fresh, structured and mineral\u003cbr\u003eRed cherry, dark raspberry and plum supported by fine, firm tannins, bright acidity and savoury notes of mushroom, Earl Grey tea and crushed stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Long, focused and persistent\u003cbr\u003eLingering red fruit, florals and spice carried by chalky tannins and a precise mineral freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Cherry, dark raspberry, mint and earth, a spicy cinnamon and floral perfume too. It’s medium-bodied, well-etched with fine but firm tannin, quite ‘minerally’ too, an Earl Grey tea and floral mouth-perfume, crisp yet strict on a finish of excellent length. Oak shows a bit at present, though it won’t later. Very good. ”\u003c\/em\u003e — Gary Walsh, The Wine Front, 95 Points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Deep ruby with characters of dark cherry, dried cranberry, wild strawberry and raspberry pip along with spice, wisps of struck match, wildflowers, tamari, cold tea, game meats and subtle crushed herbs. I like the energy here; there's a distinct tension to its travel on the palate, with sleek fruit, crushed riverstone tannins and a wicked briny acid line providing detail and cadence. Such great drinking.”\u003c\/em\u003e — Dave Brookes, Halliday Wine Companion, 95 Points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFiner Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrand - Holyman\u003cbr\u003eStyle - Red Wine\u003cbr\u003eVarietal - Pinot Noir\u003cbr\u003eCountry - Australia\u003cbr\u003eState - Tasmania\u003cbr\u003eRegion - Tamar Valley\u003cbr\u003eVintage - 2024\u003cbr\u003eABV - 12%\u003cbr\u003eSize - 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stoney Rise","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44566751477847,"sku":"HOL-PN-24","price":59.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/9258\/3217\/files\/f0294286-09de-4a2a-9e26-c656211452e4.webp?v=1792990334","url":"https:\/\/kentstreetcellars.com.au\/products\/holyman-pinot-noir-2024","provider":"Kent Street Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
