Cocoa powder tannins are interwoven with notes of summer berries, warm spices and seductive leather. Tom’s natural “Moutereness” offers a sophisticated restraint, keeping this lush and moreish wine beautifully balanced.

Thoughtful use of oak frames this Pinot brilliantly without commanding the experience, leading into a long, velvet finish.

This wine is generous without ever being overt which makes it the ultimate food wine. BBQ’d venison, wild mushroom risotto, a hunk of parmesan or a rare but personal favourite - beef tallow brownies.

This pinot will cellar with grace and poise.

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.
