Tidebrook The Tipping Point Pinot Noir 2024
Red 14% ABV ABV TidebrookSolid English Pinot
Tidebrook are doing good things. This has proper structure and the acidity keeps everything fresh. Warm but not boozy despite the 14%. Had it over two evenings and it actually opened up nicely on day two. Worth trying if you're into supporting homegrown producers.
Decent enough Pinot
Picked this up after seeing it on a list somewhere. It's fine, drinks well and has some interesting depth to it, but I've had Pinots at this price that blew me away more. The 14% alcohol is well hidden though, I'll give it that. Not bad, just not a repurchase for me.
Nice but a bit steep
The wine shop guy recommended this and it's genuinely good — smooth, well balanced, and the finish just lingers nicely. My only gripe is £34.50 feels a touch pricey for a weeknight Pinot Noir. If it was closer to £25 I'd be buying it regularly.
Birthday treat that delivered
Got this as a birthday present to myself and no regrets. Really expressive on the nose, you can tell it's been made with care. Had it with a slow-cooked lamb shoulder and it was absolutely perfect together. Clean finish that keeps you sipping.
Really impressed with this one
Bought this for a dinner party and it was a proper hit. Lovely red fruit flavours, not too heavy but still has some weight to it. Everyone kept going back for more which is always a good sign. Would definitely buy again.
