{"product_id":"2024-wantirna-estate-lily-pinot-noir","title":"2024 Wantirna Estate Lily Pinot Noir","description":"\u003cp\u003eWantirna Estate is one of the pioneers of the modern Yarra Valley. Reg and Tina Egan planted the vineyard back in 1963, and their daughter Maryann Egan now makes the wines, with the Lily Pinot Noir a benchmark for the valley's southern fringe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's a tiny site, just 10 acres, but its three blocks of Pinot are hand-picked separately, sometimes up to two weeks apart. The Mature Block, planted in the early 1970s, brings the savoury tones and fine tannins. The Front Block adds spice and the Fruit Tree Block gives generous fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 is a different animal from the brooding, backward '23. It's brighter and prettier, with red summer berries, florals and a little spice up front, then a juicy, lively palate that finishes on velvety old-vine tannins. Maryann has watched it develop for 20 months since bottling and reckons it's showing real density and power now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOld vines, a family estate with real history and a perfumed, juicy 2024 that's already drinking well. A cracking Yarra Pinot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e97 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This is quite different from the brooding, backward '23...
