HAWKES BAY

Hawke’s Bay is the sunny heart of the North Island and New Zealand’s oldest wine-producing region. With a climate that feels more Mediterranean than Pacific, it is a haven for those who love bold, structured wines. The landscape here is diverse, ranging from the gravelly soils of the Gimblett Gravels to the cooler, coastal hillsides, allowing winemakers to produce a stunning array of world-class styles.

This is the spiritual home of New Zealand Syrah and Bordeaux-style blends. The unique, heat-retaining stony soils provide the perfect conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot to ripen fully, resulting in deep, complex reds with dark fruit and savoury notes. If you enjoy a powerful red with a touch of elegance, these are some of the finest examples found anywhere in the southern hemisphere.

On the white wine side, Hawke’s Bay is equally famous for its Chardonnay. These wines are typically rich and full-bodied, often showing lovely stone fruit flavours and a sophisticated touch of oak. Whether you’re pouring a crisp, coastal white or a cellar-worthy red, Hawke’s Bay offers a sense of history and quality that shines through in every bottle.
