Very fresh and so easy to drink. Berries and a little fizz on the palate with a nose that is really close to Ashton Pinot Noir from Gentle Folk. Amazing wine. Must buy again. — 7 years ago

Mid Ruby turning tawny. Spicy perfume, a hint of violet, and with time notes of Rhubarb. On the palate easy power and intensity with red cherry and plum flavours. I have always enjoyed this Pinot Noir from when I first tasted it at a restaurant in Canberra 7 or so years ago. — 5 years ago

Pretty rose gold color, interesting blend of Grenache, Mouved, and Counnoise (which I have never heard of). Fresh floral notes and red fruits on the nose, healthy acid, citrus. Little bit of bitterness on medium length/complexity finish. Very drinkable, though not remarkable. — 8 years ago
Very crisp with some peach and strawberry hints — 5 years ago

Apart from the concern over the winemaking techniques of Ashton… This is a rather complete and delightful PV. Big, round, sweet, juicy, and long! How did they get to this completeness? I would like to think it was from a really optimal ripening season that brought that amazing Brix to the magic 24...or was it some added sugar ;) — 8 years ago
I've been on the hunt for this for a while now, and I'm happy to finally get some in my glass. The juicy cab franc with its spicy and peppery undertones does take in a Loire direction, but then the zweigelt adds a different sort of funk that pushes it into new territory. A lot going on here for such a quaffable wine, and it comes across as dynamic, alive and idiosyncratic. It also pushes all my happy buttons. Yum. Holla @Phil Ashton! — 8 years ago

Apricot, white peach and green apple finish on the palette. Off dry with a slightly acidic note that lingers. I’m loving Lauren Ashton’s whites and rose! Great bottle for summer nights on the porch. — 5 years ago
