NZ Pinot Noir ... no contest!

Australia and New Zealand wines tend to be pretty underrepresented at wine shops here in Japan, in my limited experience. They tend to be very heavy on French wines, with some Italian and Spanish, and Chilean thrown in towards the low end. California wines rarely show up beyond the mass-market offerings.
Anything that raises the profile of Aus/NZ wines in Japan is, in my opinion, a good thing. They produce some of the best reasonably priced wine on the market today.
