The combination of these clones, the vineyard site \u0026amp; horticultural practises (e.g. yield restrictions \u0026amp; soils protection), produce Pinot Noir that is elegant, flavoursome, aromatic \u0026amp; delicate.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABOUT OCEAN EIGHT \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOcean Eight is owned by the Aylward family. The winery is located at 271 Tucks Road in Shoreham on the Mornington Peninsula. All grapes picked for this small production come from the Aylward’s 17 Hectares of vines. The Mornington Peninsula has become one of the most sought-after regions in Australia for the production of high quality Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris. These are the varieties planted at Ocean Eight’s vineyards. The winery is managed by Michael \u0026amp; Hollie Aylward whose passion originated over a decade ago with a part-time job at the family’s previous winery Kooyong. Ocean Eight has evolved into the couple’s full-time obsession. This passion-driven endeavour to bring the highest quality wine to the Mornington Peninsula saw Michael win the sought-after Australian “Young Gun of Wine” award in 2011. Ocean Eight wines are lean, bright \u0026amp; tight with acid at the finish. These characters help the wines pair with food and age incredibly well. It is no coincidence that these characters are also intrinsic to the cool, maritime conditions of Mornington Peninsula vineyards, where the Aylward’s chose to grow grapes and make wines over 20 years ago.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ocean Eight","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43836491563144,"sku":"OE3523","price":49.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0602\/5694\/4264\/files\/OE3521.jpg?v=1709495643"},{"product_id":"pimpernel-hill-road-pinot-noir-yarra-valley-2022","title":"Pimpernel Hill Road Pinot Noir Yarra Valley 2022","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan data-canva-clipboard=\"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\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLay\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eered, concentrated and expressive, this 2022 Pinot Noir combines bold varietal purity with seductive secondary complexity. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduced under our second label, the Hill Road Pinot Noir focuses less on expressing a specific terroir, aiming instead to showcase pure varietal character.
