With a rich 160-year history, Ayrburn seamlessly blends heritage and innovation, offering an all-in good time, crafted flavours, captivating stories, and unparalleled experiences across multiple hospitality and wine venues.

Since its launch in December 2023, New Zealand’s Ayrburn is fast establishing itself as a world-class wine destination, with a curated range of wines available exclusively for tastings across their venues showcasing the diversity of the Central Otago region and its terroir.

Ayrburn’s range of wines feature special vineyards selected across Central Otago, showcasing the cool climate style New Zealand’s South Island is renowned for. Flagship wines in the range are sourced from exceptional single vineyards, with many receiving impressive early recognition, including three Gold medals for the Ayrburn Rose, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc, and a Double Gold for the Ayrburn Ten Acre Pinot Noir 2022 at the New Zealand International Wine Show.
