Central Otago iconic Pinot producer Gibbston Valley scooped the pool in an international wine competition in Sydney.
The recently released 2008 Reserve Pinot Noir has been awarded the trophy for Best Pinot Noir at the 2010 Sydney International Wine Competition, coming out on top of 183 pinot noirs.
Made only in the best vintages, the Gibbston Valley Reserve Pinot Noir is their flagship wine and is no stranger to International Awards since first being produced in 1995.
