Sam Neil purchased a vineyard in New Zealand with his Jurassic Park earnings in 1993 - the result is this fine Pinot Noir. I encountered it in London, UK oddly enough, where a statue of Jeff Goldblum was just erected near the Tower bridge. This is not a coincidence - “Life, uhh...” Wine finds a way.

Rich and smooth. Well structured fruits and acidity. Lovely complement to a fine meal at Saffron.
