A Wine

Kusuda Pinot Noir -2003 (WE-51060)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

The “C” stands for clay, the predominant soil type in the vineyard. Well-oaked, with smoke and berry aromas and flavors and a wiry, herbal thread wrapped around a core of bright boysenberry fruit. Shows some sturdy tannins on the finish, so hold 2–3 years. 1 Note

Vynfields Pinot Noir -2003 (WE-51062)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Amply oaked, but it works well in the context of this wine, adding hints of bacon and wood dust to the lovely rose petal and cherry aromas. Medium-bodied, with silky tannins on the finish that add just enough structure for balance. 1 Note

Pond Paddock Pinot Noir -2003 (WE-51064)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Crisply acidic, with tart cherry notes alongside mushroom and spice. Turns tea-like on the finish—a bit leafy and drying. 1 Note

Kusuda Syrah -2002 (WE-55149)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Impressive purple color, but less intense on the nose. White pepper notes add complexity to modest plum flavors, while a herbal note carries the finish. 1 Note

Martinborough Vineyard Pinot Noir -2002 (WE-62128)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

A dry, savory Pinot, with plenty of sous bois and a riary undercurrent to the black cherry fruit. Drink or hold another 3-4 years. 1 Note

Palliser Estate Chardonnay -2004 (WE-55153)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Pallsier's second-tier Chardonnay isn't imported to the U.S., but for readers where it is available, it probably offers decent value. Subtle toast and lees add complexity to apple and citrus fruit. Crisp acidity and a chalky, slightly tannic feel make it a good with food. 1 Note

Palliser Estate Chardonnay -2004 (WE-55154)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Although Palliser's wines are represented in the U.S., the Chardonnays are not, which is a shame given the evident quality. This is a medium- to full-bodied wine, marked with honey, toast, peach and orange aromas and bold pineapple flavors, yet it finishes crisp, not sweet, buttery or cloying. 1 Note

Dry River Pinot Noir -2004 (WE-62085)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

This, one of New Zealand’s cult wines, should retail for about $85 when it hits a select few retailers’ shelves this fall. Although not perhaps the strongest vintage in Martinborough, the 2004 Dry River Pinot Noir features incredibly kaleidoscopic forward fruit that ranges from cherry to plum to mixed berries and back again. It’s lush and round, yet still structured to age, with a long, silky finish. 1 Note

Escarpment Pinot Gris -2007 (WE-113190)

Most Recent Tasting Note:

Profile Image

Although this wine has performed better in past vintages, the 2007 attempts to marry buttery notes with melon fruit and the result is not entirely pleasant. It does show decent weight, concentration and length. 1 Note
