4/8/2024 - RandalWA wrote: 92 pointsVery good Central Otago Pinot, a blend of Earnscleugh, Bannockburn & Gibbston fruit. Quite dark ruby in the glass, some bramble characters and spice, with blackberry, cassis and delicate cedarwood. Will improve with age, needs a bit of time to unwind just like the rest of us. |

4/3/2024 - Dale M wrote: NRDecanted 3 hrs. While both light in both color and body, this was fascinating departure from any of my go to OR or Burg Pinots. More root vegetables than anything else I can readily recall, or perhaps a cross between earthy / soil matter and with some strawberries, but hopefully this gets across the gist of it. Proper and cleansing acidity, and for such a agile and buoyant wine, there is some real staying power on the finish. I understand this vineyard, Gibbston, is a very cool site which is Jim Dandy as this is a very cool wine. FYI - This is the great Kiwi actor Sam Neill's wine and it's clear he takes his wine a lot more seriously than he does himself - do some googling, he'll win you over real quick. |

Dry but still with decent fruit richness, this is impressive stuff for a decent price. ANy time over the next five years is good with this one. |

3/10/2024 - csnash22 Likes this wine: 88 pointsPale ruby color — medium intensity aromas and medium(+) intensity flavors of sour cherries, raspberries, and strawberries, with subtle hints of violets and earth that later evolve to add a black pepper character. Medium alcohol, body, and medium(+) tannin, with high acidity and a medium(+) finish. Fun, versatile, cool climate Pinot Noir. |

Medium(+) intensity aromas and pronounced flavors of raspberry, red currant, cranberry, and a hint of grapefruit with a nice minerality adding structure. Dry, medium alcohol, medium(-) body, high acidity, and a long finish. |

2/19/2024 - pjjsmith Likes this wine: 93 pointsBurgundy red with a slight tinge of brown. Delightful ripe raspberries and spice box notes on the bouquet. Big fruit flavours of cherry on the palate, that balance elegantly with secondary spice flavours and soft tannins. The mouthfeel and finish portrays, complexity balance and purity that has me rate this wine. |

9/17/2023 - darrenhe Likes this wine: 91 pointsReally nothing but good things here! Translucent bright crimson colour with plenty of evident viscosity. The nose isn’t overwhelming but it’s lovely with some subtle cherry, spice and a hint of cola. The palate is smooth with a nice red fruit core, subtle acidity and just a balanced hint of bitterness (in a good way). Just drinking on its own and Chicken Risotto awaits and should be a reasonable if not obvious match. I think this will develop further with time and glad I have a few bottles left. |

6/11/2023 - darrenhe Likes this wine: 89 pointsI have been a bit guilty of overlooking Two Paddocks Picnic range of wines, particularly the Pinot Noir, in favour of the main estate wine or the single vineyard wines. The 2020 is definitely worth considering. In my opinion it’s not quite in the same league as the other wines but it’s got bags of fruit and is representative of the estate. It’s a lovely wine to enjoy while waiting for the estate Pinot or the single vineyard wines to enter respective drinking windows. |

5/6/2023 - SGoenophile Likes this wine: 92 pointsDinner at Imperial Treasure Teochew Ion. Light colour - mid garnet. Softly textured, no edges. Light body. Sweet ripe fruit, no greenness but quite fresh. Red fruited, cherries and strawberries, typical of this varietal. More finesse and elegance than most NZ Pinots, which can be quite robust and rustic. A rather attractive cool climate profile. |
