- "Without any doubt, the Neudorf ‘Moutere’ Pinot Noir is the leading example from the Nelson region and ranks alongside the best in the country, such as Ata Rangi, Fromm ‘Clayvin’, Pegasus Bay ‘Prima Donna’ and Felton Road ‘Block 5’."
- Raymond Chan April 2011
- Neudorf Nelson Chardonnay 2010. "The team at Neudorf seems to take this label to a new height each year. It's youthful, yet shows superb complexity and harmony, displaying fragrant aromas of stonefruit, pineapple, oatmeal and subtle vanillin oak. The palate is concentrated and expansive, while remaining tightly structured, leading to a gloriously long finish. This is fabulous drinking already, but will no doubt evolve gracefully. At its best: now to 2016. 94pts, 5 stars"
- Sam Kim, Wine Orbit Sept 2011
- "Neudorf has a superb reputation for some of Nelson and New Zealand's best Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs. The high quality of the other varietals and styles puts this small Upper Moutere producer into contention for the honour of being one of the best wineries of the country."
- Raymond Chan Wine Reviews 2011
- “One of New Zealand's top producers.The wines are superb”
- Jamie Goode – The Wine Anorak- June 2011
- “I cannot think of another New Zealand wine producer that has been making top wines across their entire range as consistently as Neudorf over three decades. Chardonnay is the star with Pinot Noir, Riesling, Pinot Gris and Sauvignon Blanc very close behind."
- Bob Campbell MW
- “If you were to pick the best vineyard parcels from Côte de Beaune, Côte de Nuits, Alsace and middle Mosel, and put them all together, you'd end up with Neudorf's Upper Moutere vineyard. It is mind boggling to think that exceptional Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Riesling can be produced from one locality."
- Sam Kim Wine Orbit.
- “Tim and Judy Finn of Neudorf in New Zealand's Nelson region produce world-class wines which are remarkable for their quality and consistency. As confirmation, a 2000 Moutere Chardonnay showed at dinner one evening sat comfortably alongside a 1er cru Puligny Montrachet.”
- Anthony Rose The Wine Gang UK

- Neudorf is a stunning, stunning winery and a beautiful place to visit. They have an obsession with quality and they produce superb Pinot, superb Riesling and this Nelson Chardonnay 08 is lean and refreshing and an absolute cracker."
- John Hakwesby Radio NZ Monday Nov 30th, 2009.
- When grapes are turned into wine by winemakers as talented as Tim Finn, the results can be spectacular. His Moutere Chardonnay would fool many into thinking it was a fine, white Burgundy (it is priced as one, deservedly).
- Jancis Robinson MW (UK)
- "There aren’t many winemakers of whom you can say that they never make a bad wine, but Judy and Tim Finn are in this small elite group."
- Antony Rose,The Independent UK 2009.
- Neudorf Sauvignon Blanc 2008 - “Highly aromatic with fresh tropical fruit notes, leading to a lively palate displaying grapefruit freshness as well as tropical fruit richness. Lovely presence and vibrancy."

- Hugh Johnson, The Wine Book
- "Taste any of Neudorf Vineyard's wines and it is obvious why many consider Tim Finn to be among New Zealand's very best winemakers. Finn offers complexity and interest where others settle for less..."
- Tim Atkin MW, Wine (UK)
- "Tim Finn is more inspired than most, for his wines have the flair that is the mark of an artist... Neudorf Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Riesling and Sauvignon Blanc can justifiably claim to be one of the leading wines of that variety in NZ."
- Keith Stewart
