Houn
Valley, Tasmania. This wine exhibits all the hallmarks of its cool
climate origin - clear varietal expression, balance and long
concentrated flavours. The nose is generous and pure with lashings of
cherry, pure pinot fruit and an explosive, perfumed lift. The palate is
balanced and intense with clean fruit characters. This wine show great
complexity and will age beautifully over the next six to eight years.
Home
Hill is very much a Tasmanian boutique vineyard, winery and restaurant
situated on the gentle slopes of the beautiful Huon Valley. Terry and
Rosemary Bennett established Home Hill planting their first 0.5Ha in
1994, increasing these plantings to 3 Ha of Pinot, 1.5Ha of
Chardonnay and 0.5 Ha of Sylvaner. As a low altitude area the Huon
Valley has a cool temperate climate with moderate summers, very high
sunshine hours and mild winters. The long slow ripening period allows
for optimal development of fruit flavours.
The Bennett family has
spared no expense in developing Home Hill to produce award winning
wines, with unique viticultural practices employed to reduce yields, a
brand new state of the art winery and most importantly the winemaking
skills of Gilli Lipscombe.
