Boutique winery producing high-quality Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and other Pinot varietals

About Escarpment Winery Ltd.

Established in 1999 by Larry McKenna, Escarpment Winery Ltd. is a respected, small-scale New Zealand producer based in Martinborough. The winery draws on around 24 hectares of distinctive alluvial gravel soils along the Huangarua River to cultivate expressive Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, and Pinot Gris. Under the artistry of winemaker Tim Bourne and viticulturist Rowan Hoskins, Escarpment focuses on minimal-intervention winemaking that captures the site’s structure, complexity, and fruit-driven terroir. Their range includes single-vineyard wines such as Kupe, Pahi, Te Rehua, and Kiwa—named after the specific plots. The winery also operates a cellar door for tastings by appointment.
