Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 95
#10 ENTHUSIAST 100 2022
At half the price of Escarpment's single vineyard wine, Kupe, this is stellar value for one of New Zealand's top Pinots. Still young, it needs time in decanter or glass, then opens into a pretty yet powerful wine. Red fruit, tree sap, tar and underlying minerality are wound in raspy tannins. There's length, elegance, intensity and regional character, plus an ability to age until 2028, at least.
Wine Tasting Notes
Perfume, elegant fruit flavors, and soft ripe tannins are all hallmarks of this exceptional Pinot Noir.
A typical Martinborough summer has created the distinctive Escarpment style showing complexity, attractive texture and the perfect mix of black, red and green fruit flavors for which Pinot Noir is celebrated.
Inspired by the classic wines of Burgundy, this Pinot Noir is a tribute to Martinborough's unique terroir. It will cellar gracefully for up to 10 years.
