Nathan Kendall Pinot Noir 2023

Noah Williams - Confident and direct

8/10

Saw this on a restaurant menu and ordered a glass first to test. Really liked how upfront and clear the aromas were — no guessing what you're drinking. Ended up ordering a second glass. The finish is clean and keeps you wanting more.

James Okafor - Really impressed with this one

9/10

Bought this for my wife's birthday dinner and we both loved it. Super expressive on the nose — you can smell it as soon as you pour. The acidity keeps it fresh and interesting, not heavy at all for a 14% wine. Would definitely buy again.

Rafael Santos - Nice but pricey

7/10

Look, it's a good Pinot Noir — clean finish, balanced fruit, genuinely enjoyable to drink. But at nearly fifty quid I expected to be slightly more blown away. I've had comparable wines for £30-35.

Suki Patel - This kept getting better

9/10

Opened this with friends on a Friday night and honestly it was better an hour in than when we first poured it. The complexity just builds and builds. One of those wines where you keep going back for another sip without thinking about it.

Jackson Wu - Solid Pinot Noir

8/10

Picked this up after the guy at my local wine shop recommended it. It's got real depth to it, layers that kind of unfold as you drink. Not a flashy wine but a really well-made one. Good with a roast chicken.

Tiffany Nguyen - Decent but not mind-blowing

7/10

I'm fairly new to spending this much on wine so maybe my palate isn't there yet. It's clearly well made — clean, balanced, pleasant finish. Just not sure I can tell the difference between this and something half the price. Might need to try it again.

Erik Strom - Great dinner party wine

8/10

Brought this to a dinner party and it went down really well with the lamb. Nice structure to it and the acidity cuts through richer food perfectly. Got a few compliments which is always a win.
