Escarpment 2013 Pinot Noir (Martinborough)

Country: New Zealand /
Variety: Pinot Noir Martinborough
Winery: Escarpment /

Escarpment’s basic blended Pinot is anything but basic in 2013. There’s a pleasing mixture of red and black fruit, notes of dried flowers and thyme and hints of mocha, cola and vanilla. It’s medium bodied, with a firm feel on the palate and some dusty tannins on the long finish. It should drink well through 2023.
