Dedicating to the lofty ambition of producing the world best Pinot Noir, Two Paddocks was created in 1993 by NZ Screen legend Sam Neill. Two Paddocks was originally named as combined label between Sam and his vineyard neighbour and friend Roger Donaldson. Now Two Paddocks sources its Central Otago fruit from 3 vineyard paddocks, Gibbston, Alex, Redbanks, with the later providing an area for the Two Paddocks HQ and tasting rooms. From the first vintage in 1997, Two Paddocks as gone from a small family business producing a decent Pinot drop for family and friends, to a world class label enthralling all those who experience it. Picnic by Two Paddocks crafts wine for NZ’s outdoor lifestyle and loves being drunk on a blanket, with a little lunch, at your favourite spot with great friends. Designated as ‘Affordable and utterly delicious’ winemaker Dean Shaw has put together a wine rarity – Central Otago Pinot that impresses the taste buds and the wallet. The 2019 was very leisurely as all good picnics should be. The foundations were set with warm spring and finishing with a stable autumn allowing the Two Paddocks team to pick at their leisure….just when the fruit flavours were perfect!
Barton & Guestier have been making Bordeaux for a wee while....almost 300 years, so they have a fair idea of how to make a good one - and it shows with Cuvee Rambaud
Named after their first Cellar Master Germain Rambaud who first created this wine (or a version of it) way back in 1755!
