CHURTON | Pinot Noir | 2023

A core of wild strawberry and bramble fruits flavours. Minerality and fruit complexity, with a lovely tension between tannins and acidity. This wine sings from front to back on your palate.

"A savoury, earthy Pinot Noir possesses delicate, lifting fragrances, unveiling a depth of fruit and earthy elements, bounded by velvety tannins and enlivening acidity."

96/100 Points - Candice Wine Chat

"Combining sweet fruit intensity with savoury complexity, the wine shows ripe cherry, wild strawberry, dried herb, cured meat, and warm mushroom aromas with a hint of toasted almond.It's juicy, silky, and flowing in the mouth, offering finesse and refinement, backed by layers of polished tannins, finishing splendidly long and seductive. At its best: now to 2035."

95/100 Points - Sam Kim Wine Orbit

"A bouquet of complexity and stye with a developing quality. Aromas and flavours of red and purple skinned cherries, lots of fruit spice and layers of wood with clove and untoasted qualities. Dry with a medium palate squeeze led by the phenolics of coarse silk tannins and acidity that combine to deliver texture and length across the palate. Well made with persistent flavours and textures. Dried herb, old rose and stony clay earthy ideas, plum and red berries, a whisper of leather and spice. Well made with best drinking from day of purchase through 2029."
