Two Paddocks Pinot Noirs
Two Paddocks is the passion project of Hollywood film star and New Zealand native actor Sam Neill, of Jurassic Park fame. Certainly no celebrity fad, this small Central Otago estate has built an enviable reputation under the stewardship of talented winemaker Dean Shaw who learnt his craft across the world in Burgundy, Champagne and South Africa. Their wines are truly excellent and have built up a following among our customers that rivals NZ staples such a Ata Rangi, Felton Road and Burn Cottage.

Decanter (95)
Flinty reduction and gentle smoke appear briefly before that fulsome Central Otago fruit takes over: think ripe red cherry edged with hints of ivy. The palate has the same juiciness but also a crunchy, graceful but firm tannin structure along with shimmering nuances of white pepper spice. This is made to last the distance, so buy some, cellar it and wait two or three years.Inc. VAT£249.49
