Pure Pours Central Otago NZ Wine Festival

Pure Pours returns to The International this October, bringing one of New Zealand's most celebrated wine regions back to the heart of Sydney for its second edition.

Taking over The Wine Bar and Panorama Bar, Pure Pours: Central Otago NZ Wine Festival will welcome more than 20 wineries from across Central Otago for an afternoon of roaming tastings, producer conversations and discovery-led drinking.

Known for its dramatic alpine landscapes, extreme growing conditions and expressive cool-climate wines, Central Otago has built a global reputation for Pinot Noir, while also producing excellent Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Gris and other aromatic varieties. For one afternoon only, guests will be able to taste the breadth of the region in one place, from bright, precise whites and textured Chardonnays to méthode traditionnelle sparkling and the perfumed Pinot Noirs that have put Central Otago on the world stage.
