Churton Wines Marlborough Viognier 2023
Vintage Character
The 2023 vintage in Marlborough delivered a Viognier from Churton Wines that beautifully captures the region's cool climate and distinctive terroir. Thanks to a growing season marked by moderate temperatures, generous sunshine, and cool nights, the wines from this year show remarkable purity and freshness. This Viognier opens with enticing aromas of apricot blossom, white peach, and subtle ginger.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
On the palate, it presents a refined, creamy texture balanced by vibrant acidity, offering flavors of ripe stone fruit, citrus zest, and a gentle thread of spice. The finish is elegant and lingering, making it an ideal companion for dishes such as grilled lobster, roasted chicken with lemon and herbs, or steamed scallops with ginger and spring onion, which highlight the wine’s aromatic complexity and supple structure.
Winery Background
Churton Wines, established by Sam and Mandy Weaver in the early 1990s, is recognized for its commitment to organic and biodynamic viticulture in Marlborough. The estate’s vineyards are situated on north-facing slopes, maximizing sunlight exposure and benefiting from well-drained soils that contribute to the concentration and vibrancy of their wines. Churton’s philosophy centers on biodiversity and sustainable vineyard management, with a focus on low-intervention winemaking that allows the unique character of Marlborough to shine through. Their meticulous approach and dedication to environmental stewardship have positioned Churton Wines as a respected producer within New Zealand’s dynamic wine scene.
