RUA Pinot Noir Triumphs Again
Recently awarded Gold and 96 Points and named among the Top 50 wines at the New World Wine Awards 2025, RUA Pinot Noir continues to affirm its place among New Zealand’s most loved and celebrated wines.
With five trophies and eighteen gold medals to its name, this is a wine that consistently delivers quality and character.
Crafted in the heart of Central Otago, it captures the essence of the region — vibrant red fruit layered with a hint of spice, silky tannins, and a smooth, lingering finish. It’s a wine that feels effortlessly at home anywhere: on the Christmas table, around the barbecue, or shared on the deck as the sun sets.
The name RUA represents the first two varieties planted in the original vineyard — Chardonnay and Pinot Noir — and remains true to its origins as the “go-to Pinot Noir” for any occasion. No fuss, no formality, just great wine to enjoy with good food and good company.
RUA Pinot Noir Perfect Pairings:
Twice-cooked Duck with Cherry and Red Wine Sauce
Lamb Cutlets with Salsa Verde
Mushroom Gnocchi with Brie
