Churton

Churton Marlborough PInot Noir 2010 13%
Ruby core with purple hues and pinkish rim
N: A core of ripe, juicy and very youthful red fruits with cranberry and wild raspberry leading the bouquet. Plum then enters the story along with a floral and stone -like earthy note. Medium+ complexity.
5 Stars

P: The aromas on the nose translate well into the same flavors on the palate with a more than medium intensity; Medium+ tannins - still finding their balance point among other competing elements. Medium+ acidity, plum and red fruit flavors. As the wine relaxes over several minutes (in glass) the potential for cellar time increases. Two more years of integration time plus 5-8 drinking and further maturation will reward those who do.
5 Stars
