Aotearoa Wine Competition
Askerne Estate Winery’s 2021 Reserve Chardonnay took out the Supreme Champion Wine at the Aotearoa Regional Wine Competition, against 278 New Zealand and international wines.
This year's Aotearoa Regional Wine Competition formerly the New Zealand Aromatic Wine Competition - welcomed all varieties of wine and international wines.
The competition is part of the New Zealand Agricultural Show run by the Canterbury A&P Association.
