Wine event Pinot Noir New Zealand has been confirmed for February 2025 in Christchurch.

PNNZ 2025 will be held 11 – 13 February and returns after an eight-year hiatus. Tickets are on sale now and expected to sell out quickly. 

“We have some amazing speakers lined up and are looking forward to hosting influential trade and media from our key export markets,” says Michael Henley MW, PNNZ 2025 Chair.

“This is the chance for experts from around the world to experience New Zealand’s phenomenal Pinot Noir at the incredible Te Pae conference centre. For anyone engaged in the global wine scene, it is an opportunity not to be missed.”

More than 70 wineries are taking part in the three-day programme.

“Attendees can expect to immerse themselves in the stories of the land, people, and culture of New Zealand,” says Henley. “There is no better opportunity to get under the skin of New Zealand Pinot Noir and discover what makes it so unique.”

One of the United Kingdom’s most respected New Zealand wine commentators, Rebecca Gibb MW says, “Pinot Noir New Zealand 2025 is the opportunity to reconnect with a constantly evolving wine community whose thirst for self-improvement can never be quenched.”

Australian film director and author, Damon Gameau has been confirmed for the 2025 event. Gameau is known for documentaries ‘That Sugar Film’ and ‘2040’, reflecting on our interconnectedness with nature, Gameau will deliver his perspective on what regenerative actions we can take now, and choose to take next to better the future and the industry.
