Escarpment, defined as a long, steep slope that lies at the end of a plateau, is a unique place within Martinborough. Big open skies stretch across the Wairarapa, ‘glistening waters’ in te reo Māori, and the ancient alluvial soils run deep beneath the land. The home vineyard on Te Muna Road is situated just minutes east of Martinborough village, with 24 hectares of distinctive alluvial gravel, terraced land stretches out along the banks of the Huangarua River. The soils of the vineyard are alluvial loams that were formed by the Huangarua River over 20,000 years ago. With very deep alluvial gravels now layered over the loams this composition ensures exceptional drainage, one of the key prerequisites for nurturing and producing premium quality, healthy grape vines. Much like the great wines of Burgundy, Escarpment’s names their top Pinot Noirs after the vineyards from which the grapes were grown, rather than the grape variety. The Single Vineyard Kupe, Pahi, Te Rehua and Kiwa demonstrate this philosophy with distinctive elegance and character.

Fashioned true to the Escarpment style, this wine showcases the savoury complexity and structure that made Martinborough famous. Notes of turned earth and spice, sit behind lifted perfume and dark fruit flavours. It is a wine of immediate appeal, but also depth and character. Herbs de Provence, wild game, and fresh mushroom are also present. The palate is soft and subtle with ripe tannin, and classic varietal characters. It is medium bodied and a true expression of Martinborough Pinot Noir. Enjoyable on release or better after 5 years. Serve with any good Asian cuisine, Beef Bourgogne or full flavoured fish.
