Description
In a nutshell:
A fresh and fruity organic Otago Pinot Noir from actor Sam Neill's Two Paddocks estate.
The lowdown:
A blend of Sam Neill's four Central Otago Pinot Noir vineyards this wine is the flagship of the Two Paddocks estate, an organically grown barrel selection. Most of the work in the vineyards is done by hand and the wine is made using traditional methods including 25% whole bunch, which adds wonderful bright fruit flavours and a vibrancy to the wine. The wine is matured in a mix of old and new French oak. A forward and rich wine with blackcurrant, red plum and spicy aromatics. A dense and persistent textured mouthfeel but balanced with good acidity.
The Producer:
Actor Sam Neills side project, Two Paddocks, has turned into something rather serious. What started in 1993 as five acres of Pinot Noir in Gibbston - next to filmmaker Roger Donaldson's plot, hence the name 'Two Paddocks' - has grown into a major Central Otago property. Their first vintage in 1997 showed promise, and before long, they were making Pinot that could hold its own on the world stage. Now spanning three more vineyards in Alexandra and Bannockburn, they're the only winery with a foothold in all three major Central Otago valleys - a sign of both their ambition and their confidence in the quality of Pinot Noir in these parts.
When to drink:
One of those wines you can happily drink just on its own. Great with white meat or slightly chilled in summer to have with lunch.
