Two Paddocks Gold*

In London

Well, you know us – we never enter our wine into competition, ever. Somehow, however, our 2010 Two Paddocks slipped through the gate, and found itself at the extremely prestigious International Wines and Spirits Competition in London this year (...Jacqui?). And lo, we win gold!

We leave it for the judges to describe this wine, and sit back glowing with false modesty and validation of all we thought of our 2010.

  Gold Outstanding -- Two Paddocks Pinot Noir 2010    Wow! Nose is a bouquet of floral aromas, violet and rose, changing into dried herb and bergamot, before turning dark and smoky. All these scents darting through a sweet, rich and inviting core of cherry and framboise fruit. These elements combine in the mouth to dance a sweet/savoury tango. Twirling and stamping a very authoritative presence, with effortless grace. Pretty darn good stuff.

Mike, Dean, and all our team, take a bow! Okay, that’ll do. Let’s all look humble again ...

We are thrilled, actually.

*(Webmaster's note: It's not just "gold," it's "gold outstanding" which is the top prize! Go team!)
