Anthonius and Leonarda Ham saw that the Western Heretaunga region of Hawke's Bay, with its ancient riverbeds and moderate climate, held the secret to fine wines.
They planted vineyards in this area, now known as the Bridge Pa Triangle district, and were one of the subregion's first wineries.
They remain family owned today and have received Trophies for their impressive wines.
30 years later, they have converted fully to organic viticulture, with certification from 2023 vintage.
New Zealander Barry Riwai is the winemaker. With a fascination for Rhône wines, he is well suited to produce this elegant Kiwi Syrah.
Enjoy with grilled meats or pasta.

From a fourth-generation-owned Pauillac cellar, B de Fonbadet may fall under the humble Bordeaux label, but it’s intensity and complexity leave no doubt about its high-end quality. This 2019 has even won the Decanter’s esteemed Platinum medal.
In these tunnels are stored a fascinating library of older vintages. This is a rare opportunity to get your share of one. Just this year, Wine Advocate rated a 1970 Rioja from this estate at 95 points. It was in fine form with years ahead of it! All goes to prove that the ancient tunnels (los calados) provide the ideal conditions for long ageing the wines. The grapes are also key – for this red they were picked from 40 year old bush vines high up in the Alta, so flavour is exceptionally concentrated. In fact, the grapes used to supply Paternina – legends of Rioja. Ideal with game or mushroom risotto.
