Te Awa Single Estate vineyards and winery are situated in the renowned Gimblett Gravels of Hawke's Bay, bound by the Kaweka Ranges to the west and the spine of Te Mata Peak to the east.  No better place for us to start a combined showcase of the natural elements, winemaking and lifestyle than the place that has it all.  From dawn to dusk, the following content was captured across one day.

Aerials
