We are thrilled to announce that our Rockburn Crimson Peak Pinot Noir 2024 has been awarded a remarkable 98/100 points and a Double Gold Medal at the 2025 New Zealand International Wine Show (NZIWS) — New Zealand’s largest and most prestigious wine competition.
From the 34 Pinot Noirs recognised with Golds this year, only six achieved Double Gold status. These awards represent the pinnacle of achievement in New Zealand wine, and we are proud to have Rockburn Crimson Peak positioned among the very best.
Now in its 21st year, the NZIWS is chaired by Bob Campbell MW and judged by an expert panel of respected wine professionals. Their recognition reinforces Rockburn’s standing as a leading Central Otago producer, consistently delivering wines that capture the rugged beauty and unique terroir of our home.
We extend our warm congratulations to all fellow award recipients — and raise a glass to the remarkable journey of New Zealand wine.
Rockburn Crimson Peak 2024 — Central Otago Pinot Noir, redefined.
