Escarpment Pinot Noir 2019

Tasting Notes

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, (Christina Pickard,Wine Enthusiast,May 1, 2022)
