New Zealand's Premier Annual Pinot Noir Event
Enjoy some Pinot Noir at this wine tasting event in New Zealand. This is a little unusual since it seems to be run by a company called the Fine Wine Delivery Company rather than an event put on by a non-commercial group, but it might still be worth checking out for those on that side of the globe.

Here are the particular from a company press release:

Celebrates its fourth consecutive year with a series of nation wide consumer tasting events and dinners held from October 16th-19th showcasing pre approved same vintage 2005 Pinot Noir. All NZ Pinot producers were invited to enter their 2005 wines and tasting samples of ready for market wines were reviewed by the highly experienced Fine Wine Delivery Company tasting team.

Fine Wine Delivery Company owner Jeff Poole and his team initiated this unique Pinot event in 2003 as part of their vision to help wine consumers successfully navigate the myriad of styles and variable quality emerging in an increasingly cluttered Pinot market place. "By allowing our highly experienced independent tasting team to evaluate the wines first we are able to eliminate those Pinot exhibiting obvious faults, lacking in definition or dramatically under delivering in value. Pinot consumers are then offered tickets to tasting evenings in Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland where they are able to sample the entire pre approved line up and make informed buying decisions suited to their style preferences."

Invited winemakers from each region will travel with the tour and present to consumers regarding the overall quality of the vintage within their region. Post every tasting a dinner is held to showcase the specific Pinot of the touring winemakers matched with outstanding cuisine.
