Escarpment Vineyard

Wairarapa Pinot Noir from three distinct single vineyards.

Escarpment Vineyard sits in Wairarapa, New Zealand's North Island, where cool-climate conditions shape elegant Pinot Noir. The winery's single-vineyard expressions—Kupe, Te Rehua, and Kiwa—each capture distinct terroir within the region. Pinot Noir from Wairarapa develops complexity and structure in this maritime climate, and Escarpment's bottlings have drawn assessment from Wine Advocate, Decanter, Wine Spectator, Falstaff, and Wine Enthusiast. The Kupe Single Vineyard Pinot Noir leads the portfolio in critical reception, followed by Te Rehua and Kiwa, all three demonstrating the precision possible in New Zealand's cooler regions. The winery's focus on single-vineyard Pinot Noir reflects a commitment to expressing the specific character of Wairarapa's soils and microclimates.
