{"product_id":"2023-lowestoft-la-maison-pinot-noir","title":"2023 Lowestoft La Maison Pinot Noir","description":"\u003cp\u003eFollowing in the footsteps of the Jimmy Watson-winning 2022 release, the 2023 La Maison Pinot Noir reinforces Lowestoft’s position at the very top of Australian Pinot. With fruit drawn from the oldest vines on the estate planted in 1986 and perched just above the Derwent River - this is a wine of serious pedigree and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWinemaker Liam McElhinney has built a reputation for walking the line between generosity and finesse, and this release is no exception. Whole-bunch ferments bring structure and lift, while meticulous oak handling adds subtle seasoning without overpowering the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the nose, it’s all raspberry, cherry blossom and pomegranate, bright, floral and complex. The palate follows with a rush of red fruits and savoury undertones: anise, dried herbs, graphite and spice. The tannins are fine and chalky, framing the wine’s graceful structure, and the finish is long, poised, and effortlessly elegant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of Tasmania’s finest Pinot Noirs, made with intent, detail, and a genuine sense of place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"There's a lot going on here – all of it good. Bright red cherry, red plum and raspberry pip tones with hints of cocoa powder, pomegranate, Chinese barbecue joint, amaro, souk-like spice, leaf litter, struck flint, XO sauce, shiitake broth and earth. Pure and spicy red fruits, fine, powdery tannins and a mineral-laden acidity that seems to pull the flavours forward on the palate, finishing long, savoury and true with everything plumb and tickety boo. Just lovely.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Dave Brookes (Halliday Wine Companion)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e","brand":"Lowestoft","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56141652787572,"sku":"djp1789956152668","price":55.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/5613\/8100\/files\/2023-lowestoft-la-maison-pinot-noir_1.webp?v=1789956155","url":"https:\/\/petcameramon.shop\/products\/2023-lowestoft-la-maison-pinot-noir","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
