Escarpment Kiwa Pinot Noir 2021, Martinborough

Fabulous bouquet, luxurious and complex, new and youthful. Aromas of dried herbs wrapped in red berry fruits, there’s a savoury quality with contrasting scents of dark cherry and black currants, there’s also a floral quality with pressed dark roses and core of stones and clay. Firm and dry with lots of texture and spice, barrel smoke and newish wood flavours. Tannins are ripe and firmly textured, acidity pulls all the elements together and carries them throughout the palate. Delicious, taut and youthful a wine that will benefit from cellar time. Best drinking from 2026 through 2036.
