Ashton Hills Piccadilly Valley Pinot Noir 2016 Reviews 93 PointsFrom Stephen Georges famed Ashton Hills vineyard, now under the umbrella of Wirra Wirra wines, this is designated Piccadilly Valley as it includes fruit from nearby growers. This is such a lovely wine, with its violet fragrance and companion aromatics as you taste, and while quite powerful it sits evenly in the mouth with a cherry juice feel and soft spicy tannins that encourage just another little pour for good measure. 91 Points –The Advertiser, Tony Loves Top 100 Wines – JUL 2017Grown on both the Ashton Hills estate vineyard and on two nearby vineyards in the Adelaide Hills. Exquisite part of the world it is too. Vastly under-valued as a touring area. Theres a semblance of warmth but from there its pure Ashton Hills. Macerated cherries, a gentle sweet-sourness, oodles of spice, florals and a foresty/minty note. A general meatiness too. It has life, character and charm, and more than a little firmness to boot. Warmth is the only distraction. 90 Points – The Wine Front, Campbell Mattinson – JUN 2017 Fresh cranberries and caramelized orange peel on the nose. The fruit is vibrant and tangy on the palate. Fresh, medium-bodied and a medium finish. JamesSuckling.com, Nick Stock – JUL 2017
