Churton Marlborough Pinot Noir 2013 $44
Biodynamic winegrowing is where the Weaver family of Waihopai Valley excel, so when the winemaker offers to show you his “poo pits” I suggest you accept with a smile because (weirdly) they’re actually rather inspiring. This pinot erupts with bright berries, tangy black tea and sweet dark fruit concentration. The acidity is plush, giving buoyancy and tasty tension to the mouthfeel. Gorgeous.
Sip with: peking duck pancakes
