The region is NZ’s oldest wine region, with first plantings dating back to 1851. Chosen due to its dry and warm maritime climate, it has temperature ranges similar to that of Burgundy and Bordeaux permitting a long growing season. The soils are free draining, with natural low fertility making it ideal for wine growing. The Hawke’s Bay region is renowned for full-bodied Red Blends, elegant Syrah and rich, complex Chardonnays. The Hawke’s Bay has the perfect climate and soils for growing traditional Bordeaux grapes. With increasingly extended growing seasons, the region can offer consumers the authentic Bordeaux style with a unique NZ accent, nuance, and flavour.
