Two Paddocks Pinot Noir Single Vineyard First Paddock 2016 skus_7266140 12 months of barrique ageingThe First Paddock is the original much loved Two Paddocks vineyard. Planted in 1993, it is now one of the older blocks in Central Otago. Superbly situated in the midst of upper Gibbston, planted in carefully selected Burgundian clone pinot noir vines and meticulously tended. This is a thoughtfully crafted expression of Two Paddocks' foundation site.
