2020 Pinot Noir Escarpment
£25.00
“There’s a raw mineral edge to the nose that complements the earthy spice, cranberry and raspberry fruit. Combined, it evokes autumn: the crunch of leaves, tree sap, pine needles and dried wildflowers. The tannins are, true to region, raspy and bone dry, allowing the tart red fruit some juiciness but then sucking it away, leaving the mouth parched yet satisfied.”

Product Description
Larry McKenna founded Escarpment in 1999 and proceeded to build a phenomenal reputation as the ‘Prince of Pinot’ crafting an impressive array of highly regarded wines. He continued to work closely with Australian wine estate Torbreck, who purchased the estate in 2019, to ensure the continued success of the wines before handing over his legacy to the now head winemaker, Tim Bourne.
Perfume, elegant fruit flavours, and soft ripe tannins are all hallmarks of this exceptional Pinot Noir from Escarpment, crafted in a Burgundian style.
