2025 Stoney Rise Chardonnay

Joe Holyman is widely considered one of Tasmania's best Chardonnay producers. While his top-tier 'Holyman' label has become one of the most collectable and scarce wines on the island, the Stoney Rise Chardonnay offers a chance to drink his signature style at a fraction of the price.

The 2025 vintage was a fantastic growing season in Northern Tasmania, characterised by warm days and cool nights. Sourced from a small vineyard in the North West, this year's release sits in a beautiful sweet spot. It offers a rich, fleshy palate driven by white peach and stone fruits, but it is kept in check by Joe's trademark "grippy acidity."

It is textural, lasting and incredibly drinkable. Dollar for dollar, this remains one of the smartest buys in Tasmanian wine.
