A deep and brooding Pinot.

The palate and aromas are beautifully intertwined - dark cocoa nibs, freshly roasted coffee beans, black cranberries and ripe cherries with a hint of pink peppercorns and campfire smoke. These elements come together in a brilliantly bold Pinot, atypical of Nelson.

Fine tannins frame this wine as it moves through the palate. This chalky note keeps the rather voluptuous flavour profile in check and gives the wine an elegant mouthfeel.

This deserves a great cut of meat thrown on a seriously hot BBQ. Open a couple of hours early or decant to enjoy at its best.

Cellar with absolute confidence.

The Producer

Team Neudorf includes business manager Phill Lee, who handles finances. He is aided by Alison Hill, who looks after exports, samples & general paper shuffling. Mike Moody & Lynne Peter keep the place looking beautiful and the coffee strong. Baz, the vineyard cat can be found up trees, under desks and sleeping in the middle of the cellar door…. He’s the resident charmer.

Neudorf Vineyards is also a member "The Family of Twelve," a group of like-minded winemakers who have banded together to create a unique export marketing group. The twelve wineries are Kumeu River, Villa Maria, The Millton Vineyards, Craggy Range, Ata Rangi, Palliser Estate, Neudorf Vineyards, Fromm Vineyards, Nautilus Estate, Lawson’s Dry Hills, Pegasus Bay, and Felton Road.

We have known each other for years and share a concern about the trend away from wines of individuality and character towards the ubiquitous and amorphous “wine brands,” where individuality is too often a construct of the marketing department. Already this venture has proved successful and a whole lot of fun as well.
