September 18, 2013 - Medium-bodied; spicy, slightly funky, richly fruited aromas; black cherry, thyme and quite opulent on the palate, but piquant too. Lively and insistent rather than elegant. No magic or mystery; a little heavy-handed. Just enough complexity to make for an engaging companion over an evening. Perfectly pleasant, but nothing special.

August 7, 2013 - New Zealand wines tend to be crisper and less fat than its Australian neighbour and other new world wines. In the past year I find my interest in Kiwi wines rising.
the Neudorf Pinot Noir is a subtle, lighter style of pinot that presents elegant fruit with sweet tannins. In the mouth the wine is refreshing with flavours of cherry that is polished over with some oak which imparts just the right about of spice. This is not a wine for those people that tend to look at heavier Carneros as a benchmark for Pinot Noir. I have a feeling that the recent interest in Kiwi wines amongst Europeans will only continue to rise.
Cheers! -

June 5, 2012 - Moderately deep ruby colour; lovely floral, slight mushrooms, funky-S aromas, complex; fruit-sweet palate with some tannin; could easily develop more. Nice wine.

April 8, 2012 - smooth and rounded, perfect now, perfumed, showing its age at the clear rim, caramel and red fruit.

March 24, 2011 - As good as any new world pinot in this price bracket. Nose of apples, cherries and hint of caramel. Well balanced and finishes nicely, though might benefit from a bit of time in the deanter which I failed to do.
