Blanc Canvas Escaroth Vineyard Pinot Noir 2019
Escaroth is a unique north-facing, sloped, dry-farmed site in the middle of the Taylor Pass. Vines were planted in 2001 and, rare in Marlborough, it is established without irrigation. The Taylor Pass has the largest diurnal range in all of Marlborough and is often the driest sub-region. The north-facing slope is essential for frost protection as well as exposure for ripening. The low-vigour, old clay soils are perfect for Pinot Noir. The total Pinot Noir area is just under one hectare and is planted with Dijon clones 777 and 115. The vineyard is spur-pruned and VSP trained. A beguiling, complex perfume of peony and violets, red cherry and pomegranate, overlaid with an enchanting spice, game and earthy savouriness. The low-yielding vintage resulted in a wine of incredible concentration and intensity, with innate muscular tannin structure that ensures it will age very well.
