Description:

Te Awanga Estate is a family owned wine business. Everything we do reflects the love we have for ‘our place’ – Hawke’s Bay, and our enduring ambition to make world class wines. And smile while doing it. In 2006 we began searching out great vineyard sites that would eventually supply grapes to make the great wines of our future. We have an enduring purpose. To grow, harvest and craft the finest wines ever made in New Zealand. The people working in our vineyards, winemaking and business are all motivated by the same ambition of making great wine, reflecting our place and ideas. We have chosen what we believe are some of Hawke’s Bay’s greatest vineyard sites from the coast at Te Awanga to our most inland site at Maraekakho. The Hawke’s Bay region has a varied landscape providing an environment to grow a number of different varieties and wine styles. One of Hawke’s Bays greatest strengths is its geographical and climatic diversity and that’s why we love making wine here. We grow Merlot, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc at the coast where the maritime climate ensures a bright acidity and long growing season. At our inland vineyard at Bridge Pa, we grow Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah as these are our hottest blocks and have enough heat to ripen these varieties fully. At our highest and most inland vineyard, closer to the mountains, we grow Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir. Cooler nights here provide our vines with the conditions they need to produce fragrant, complex and concentrated wines.
