Two Paddocks Pinot Noir 2025 750ml

At the start of the 2024 growing season, there was above-average early rainfall and two large snow events in mid- September and late October, which resulted in a slow start to spring growth as the soil was still too cool. Then a very late frost on the 3rd November caused minor damage at The Fusilier Vineyard, Bannockburn and The First Paddock, Gibbston, but thankfully, there was no damage on the two Alexandra vineyards. Counterintuitively, overall average spring 2024 temperatures were above 2023 and sat in the middle range. Optimum flowering and fruit-set was achieved in December, and then warm settled late summer weather saw perfect conditions for ripening.
