93/100 (Cam Douglas MS) - "Aromas and flavours of lemon and lime, fresh white peaches and pear....a surge of white fleshed fruits then citrus, and mineral, salivating and refreshing with a backbone of acidity"

Two Paddocks is the “The Fine Wine & Cheering Up Business” of famous NZ actor Sam Neill.

The First Paddock was Sam’s first vineyard – 4.6 hectares of 100% Pinot Noir planted in Central Otago’s Gibbston Valley in 1993. These days he’s got The Last Chance (Earnscleugh), Red Bank Farm & Vineyard (Alexandra Basin) and The Fusilier (Felton Road, Bannockburn).

In their own words they’re “A very very small company, utterly obsessed with Pinot Noir. And Riesling. And with great pride – organics, quality, authenticity, detail and style. Having said all that, we don’t take ourselves at all seriously – the seriousness we leave to our SERIOUS wines.”

This is the 2025 vintage of the Two Paddocks Schatzi Riesling – the Proprietor (that was Sam) chose the word Schatzi as it translates to ‘Sweet heart’ and he thought this luscious, bright, medium style would be a darling in your cellar!

Organically grown from a single block from Two Paddocks’ Red Bank Vineyard in Alexandra, Central Otago. It’s what we’d call a medium style Riesling (for you wine nerds out there it’s 19 grams of residual sugar) – it’s luscious with a plush, silky texture with white flesh and lemon citrus fruit flavours. It’s utterly delicious!

Certified BioGro organic this is good to go now or cellar for up to 6-10 years from vintage.
