{"product_id":"2024-gentle-folk-piccadilly-chardonnay","title":"2024 Gentle Folk Piccadilly Chardonnay","description":"\u003cp\u003ePiccadilly is often called the Grand Cru pocket of the Adelaide Hills, and this new single-vineyard release from Gareth Belton shows exactly why. Sourced from the St James Vineyard, just below Mount Lofty, it’s a site that combines altitude, old vines, and complex soils of clay, sandstone and quartz - the perfect recipe for powerful yet refined Chardonnay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 vintage was low yielding but beautifully balanced, producing fruit of exceptional concentration and drive. The resulting wine has that signature Piccadilly tension: citrus and white peach at its core, hints of melon and hazelnut, and a fine streak of flinty minerality running through it. There’s weight and generosity, but the acidity keeps everything humming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhole-bunch pressed and wild fermented, it spent 11 months in French oak (20% new) before a brief rest in tank ahead of bottling. The oak sits quietly in the background, adding shape and polish without dulling the brightness of the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is classic Hills Chardonnay at its most complete - poised, textural and full of energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e96 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This is flashy yet refined, with aromas of struck match, grilled lemons, slate and salted nuts. The palate is textural and mid-weighted, with fine-boned acidity and a plush texture. A refined and pure expression of Piccadilly chardonnay. Drink or hold.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Ryan Montgomery (James Suckling)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e","brand":"Gentle Folk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56141789102452,"sku":"lfo1789957444186","price":42.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/5613\/8100\/files\/2024-gentle-folk-piccadilly-chardonnay_1.png?v=1789957446","url":"https:\/\/petcameramon.shop\/products\/2024-gentle-folk-piccadilly-chardonnay","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
