Pinot Noir New Zealand 2025

Olly was honoured to be asked to speak at Pinot Noir New Zealand 2025 in Ōtautahi, Christchurch last week.

Pinot Noir New Zealand 2025 is a fantastic event for passionate Pinot Noir producers from around New Zealand’s winegrowing regions where experts from within the country and around the world gather, united purely by their reverence for Pinot Noir.

In Māori-language, Aotearoa, Pinot Noir is liquid affirmation of a close relationship between people and their land.

The people of New Zealand treasure this relationship, and call it kaitiaki. You can taste the care, respect, and the love in every glass.
