- Charmian Smith, Otago Daily Times
- Maggie's Block Pinot Gris 2009. The wine is more about texture than taste with subtle mineral and toasty lees characters interwoven with pear. Back to the texture - it's a fine, tight and ethereal wine - burgundy-like with a hint of sweetness but refreshingly dry on the finish.

- "This is possibly the finest Pinot Gris I've had in a long time, it's the Neudorf Moutere Pinot Gris. 2009. Neudorf is one of my favourite vineyards I have to say. Everything they do is sublime. This is one of the best ever. Not your usual big hint of pear. It has got a bit of pear in it, but its more subtle than that. Its got more flavours, nectarine and grapefruit, subtlety but not blandness, its got a touch oak and touch of sweetness about it, fulsome and lipsmacking. It's very refreshing, sublime outstanding Pinot Gris."
- John Hawkesbury, RNZ
- "A classy Nelson producer which can always be relied upon. A prestigue Pinot Gris, concentrated,seamless, lots of quince piw with hints of grapefruit and nectarine. Great texture."
- John Hawkesby NZ Herald.
- Neudorf Maggie’s Block Pinot Gris 2008 Nelson ” Good intensity of flavour and so much not jumping on the Pinot Gris bandwagon. Bravo! Off dry. Long. Juicy. What non-Alsace Pinot Gris should be. Very long. 16.5 ”
- Jancis Robinson MW 2009
- "The 2008 Neudorf Pinot Gris Maggies Block has a lovely aroma of baked apple, fresh pear and custard. The flavours are broad and silky, plenty of weight and richness with a savoury oatmeal finish. The alcohol is quite noticeable but although the label states that there is 4 grammes of residual sweetness, the wine tastes much drier and more balanced. And at $24.00 surely this is an absolute steal?"

- "Pinot gris comes in for a hard time but only because many examples are made in a neutral, crowd pleasing style. The variety has intrinsic quality and just needs a careful winemaker to tease it out. It seems Tim Finn is just that sort of winemaker."

- John Hawkesby March 2009 Radio NZ.
- Maggie's Block Pinot Gris 2008 “Luscious, fleshy wine with a touch of sweetness nicely restrained by acidity and tannins to give a pleasantly drying finish. Pear, a hint of spice (star anise?) and nectarine. ”
