 Complex and detailed, this fragrant red offers notes of gunpowder tea, dried lavender and rosemary, with a touch of sassafras to complement the rich, succulent black cherry, blueberry and blackberry flavors. The tannins offer a firm backbone, but never get in the way. Drink now through 2026. (MW)  (10/2021)

 Aromas of redcurrants, cherries, dried herbs and baking spices. Medium body with lively acidity. Fresh, layered and juicy with a bright core of fruit and a succulent finish. Drink now.  (11/2021)

 This is a tasty intro both to Escarpment and to Martinborough Pinot. Three years in the bottle (at the time of tasting) shows a little bottle age, the primary fruit heading into cherry cordial territory, but there's life left here yet. Dried leaf and sap, mushroom, florals and a medicinal character are all wrapped in the region's distinctive tannins. They're powerful yet fine, leaving room for the fruit, spice and freshness. Drink now–2026. (CP)  (5/2022)
