Hawke’s Bay is one of New Zealand’s most distinctive wine regions, known for reliable sunshine, varied soils, and a warm, coastal climate that helps grapes ripen beautifully. As a result, you’ll often find wines with rich fruit character and a welcoming balance of freshness.

Across the region, vineyards sit on free draining gravels and fertile river flats, which means growers can produce everything from elegant, aromatic whites to full bodied reds. Hawke’s Bay is especially well regarded for Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, plus expressive blends. You’ll also see plenty of approachable Chardonnay, often with a creamy texture and subtle oak influence, depending on the producer’s style.

If you enjoy food friendly bottles, this is a great place to start. Red wines from Hawke’s Bay naturally pair with roast meats, hearty stews and chargrilled vegetables, while the whites work well with seafood, salads and creamy pasta dishes.

Explore the range to discover styles that suit your table, whether you’re planning a relaxed weeknight meal or something a little more special.
