Escarpment Martinborough Pinot Noir Rosé 2024

Description

Dry, Strawberry, Toffee

Red summer berries and toffee, along with lifted perfume and a crunchie freshness, are the hallmarks of this Rosé. This is attributed to the use of 100% Pinot Noir. The palate is full of strawberries and cream but also crisp and dry, with a long finish and lively acidity. Barrel fermentation and aging on lees, has added mouthfeel and texture. Made to be drunk young and perfect on a warm spring or summers evening. Totally refreshing.

After many years of creating full-bodied Pinot Noir, we decided to craft a rosé from this exemplary grape variety. A warm growing season coupled with cool nights, has given us a beautifully fragrant Rosé that is crisp and fresh.

Select parcels of fruit have been wild fermented in old French oak barriques, to add texture and depth. Taking inspiration from the great Rosés of Provence, the wine is a delicate light copper colour. The refreshing palate reveals crisp natural acidity along with a balanced finish, making it a perfect accompaniment to summer celebrations.
