Double Gold in China's Biggest Wine Competition

The Hay Paddock has been awarded a Double Gold Medal in the 2012 China Wine Awards. Billed as "the biggest Wine and Spirits Competition in Hong Kong and China" around 100 judges took part in the blind tasting of international wines making it "the only competition committed to judging wines specifically for the Chinese market."
The Hay Paddock "Jules Silk" Harvest Reserve Syrah 2010 was one of only 19 medals awarded to NZ wines. 



Gold for Hay Paddock Syrah in Australia confirms appeal of cooler climate

The Hay Paddock "Jules Silk" Harvest Reserve Syrah 2010 has been awarded the Gold medal in the Shiraz category at the Australian Boutique Wine Awards for 2012. Restricted to specialist producers in Australia and New Zealand with production of 250 tonnes maximum per annum, these awards attract entries from some of the cult wine producers of the region and are keenly followed by collectors and connoisseurs. This confirmation from Australian judges that the spice and minerality of our cool climate syrah appeals to palates used to the traditional shiraz styles is very re-assuring and backs up the feedback we have been receiving from European judges and critics.

The Best of the Best

Wine Guide

for 2011

   

The 2011 pick of the best 100 wines released during the year in the Best of the Best Wine Guide contains two wines from The Hay Paddock.
As the Best of the Best editor observes, over 5,000 wines are released each year in New Zealand by 850 wine company brands - so this is quite a coup.
The two wines are The Hay Paddock Silk Rose 2011, described as "...a very good food partner. A rose with a difference ..." and The Hay Paddock Syrah 2008, "...a somewhat special wine. Youthful, but more importantly, a legend in the making."

With the ocean at my feet…

    and a glass of wine in my hand

        I knew I was in paradise…

All we wanted was to get away for two days – not two days travelling, but two days of complete relaxation together. A friend suggested CLIFFTOPS on Waiheke Island. ‘It’s one of the most stunning locations you’ll ever find,’ she promised, and how right she was. But what we loved was the absolute peace and privacy, the perfect breakfast in bed and the stunning Hay Paddock wine with which they greeted us. Of course, we didn’t just sleep and walk and talk, we had dinner at the chic new Oyster Inn and a beach-side lunch at the locals’ favourite, Charlie Farleys. But what I loved was that it was all so easy. All I did was phone them. They did the rest. Easy! I like that.
