NZ Aotearoa Organic Wine Awards, BRONZE 

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit 94 Points, 5 Stars  *****      Gorgeously elegant and sweetly fruited, the inviting bouquet shows dark plum, wild strawberry, olive, toasted almond and subtle spice aromas, leading to a beautifully weighted palate offering silky texture and layers of fine-grained tannins. Elegant yet brilliantly structured, finishing splendidly long and satisfying. Certified organic. At its best: now to 2032.

About Two Paddocks:    Actor Sam Neill planted his original 2-hectare vineyard, the First Paddock site, at Gibbston in Central Otago in 1993. That vineyard has now been doubled in size and two more blocks added, the 3-hectare Alex Blocks vineyard perched above the Clutha River at Alexandra and the 5.5-hectare Redbank Paddocks site in the Earnscleugh Valley.
