From the Cellar: Churton Pinot Noir Marlborough 2011 – $
The last bottle from the cellar, alas. This has been a fabulous bargain buy.
A gorgeously soft and silky floral bouquet. Light, elegant and supple deliciousness to drink.
Highly Recommended – 91 points
Love Churton, too! Sam Weaver, the winemaker, is just a great guy – also the winemaker for Mt. Beautiful. Don’t mean to be presumptuous, but here’s an interview I did with him a few years ago – a true artisan:https://binnotes.com/2015/09/08/kiwis-cowhorns-churton-wines-new-zealand/. Cheers~
Yes, this wine was a find. I hope to visit the winery later this year.
Say ‘hi’ to Sam and his wife – she’s big in the NZ biodynamics arena. Cheers~!
Very interesting interview. Thanks!
