2025
The judges for the 2025 Aotearoa Regional Wine Awards will be led by Chief of Judges Jim Harré, who heads a panel of expert judges undertaking blind tastings of wines from across Aotearoa’s diverse regions.
Chairman of Judges
Jim Harré needs little introduction as a national and international wine judge for over 30 years. In Aotearoa, he has been a judge at the New World, Air New Zealand and Royal Easter Show Wine Awards and wine competitions. With a family background in making wine that spans generations (his brother, father and grandfather were winemakers), Jim has extensive experience in both curating and distributing wines.
