Escarpment Pinot Noir 2020, Martinborough
This is the flagship Pinot Noir of this producer which means my expectations were pretty high - mainly because I have enjoyed this wine and style for many years - gosh it’s good. In fact it over delivers with a delightful bouquet of charm and power, a core fruit voice of dark cherry and baked strawberry, there’s a mix of barrel spices and floral charms, a carefully managed bouquet that is captivating and loaded with pinosity. Delicious on the palate driven by textures of fruit and oak, barrel toastiness and complex core of concentration without over doing any single attribute. A fine wine that impresses and delivers on style and charm, variety and power. Great drinking from 2024 through 2034.
