{"product_id":"2023-ashton-hills-estate-pinot-noir","title":"2023 Ashton Hills Estate Pinot Noir","description":"\u003cp\u003eAshton Hills' Estate Pinot Noir is always a marker of the vintage, and in 2023 it’s a wine of finesse and quiet power. Sourced entirely from the estate’s six preferred clones, it's a pure expression of Piccadilly Valley Pinot - layered, structured, and built to impress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2023 season was cool and slow, with reduced yields and a long ripening period. The result? Small, intensely flavoured berries that bring depth and precision to the glass. Handpicked fruit, 14% whole bunch, and wild fermentation keep things true to site, while time in French oak (just 17% new) adds polish without overshadowing the fruit. Expect layers of red and black berries, a hint of baking spice, and that signature Piccadilly freshness. Fine tannins and a long, savoury finish round it all out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a Pinot that’s drinking beautifully now but will only gain in complexity over the next five years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Svelte and meticulous with a minerally profile and brisk acidity. Tart red cherry, smoky spice, forest floor, and brambly blackberries, with clove and exotic aromatics lending complexity. Understated yet structured, with length and control. Utter charm is the result.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Mike Bennie (Halliday Wine Companion)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A powerhouse Pinot Noir with strong, measured fruit, tannin, and oak.
