2009 The Edge Pinot Noir Martinborough, NZ $29

The Edge wines are the entry level range from the Escarpment brand in Martinborough, New Zealand. Escarpment is managed under the watchful eye and impressive skill of Larry McKenna. Larry haling from Adelaide, was one of the pioneers of Martinborough as a wine region.

The season was exceptionally warm allowing high quality, fully ripe fruit to be harvested early with brilliant ripe cherry/plum flavours. A full-bodied style with great backbone and a long lingering finish.An immediately accessible wine, which will improve over the next 2 years. Enjoy with full flavoured fish dishes, lamb or vegetarian dishes.
