{"product_id":"escarpment-chardonnay","title":"Escarpment Chardonnay","description":"\u003cp\u003eNew Zealand and Chardonnay — that\u0026#39;s no longer just a footnote. Escarpment, based in Martinborough on the southern Wairarapa coast of the North Island, demonstrates with this wine what the region is capable of: a cool continental climate that delivers both fruit clarity and acid structure, giving Chardonnay a depth more commonly associated with Burgundy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In the glass, aromas of yellow peach, mirabelle plum, and a hint of roasted hazelnut unfold—ripe, yet never heavy. Mineral notes permeate the aromatics, lending a vibrant freshness that makes the wine feel light and airy despite its richness. On the palate, a creamy, silky texture; the acidity is softly integrated, not sharp, but a calm framework that gives the wine length. The finish is warm and lingering, with a nutty aftertaste.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Martinborough is known for its well-drained soils and dramatic temperature variations between day and night—this Chardonnay perfectly reflects that: warmth and freshness in the same sip. Best served at \u003cstrong\u003e12–14°C\u003c\/strong\u003e , with chicken in cream sauce, pan-fried cod with caper butter, or a mature Brie de Meaux.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Escarpment Winery","offers":[{"title":"2021","offer_id":53152163594576,"sku":"VJ1609-2021","price":31.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/files\/604051.jpg?v=1781611542","url":"https:\/\/www.vinoscout.de\/en\/products\/escarpment-chardonnay","provider":"Vinoscout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
