The Story Behind the Bottle
Alpha Domus was started in the early days of New Zealand winemaking – 1989 to be precise. 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 the 2023 vintage. New Zealander Barry Riwai is the winemaker. With considerable experience all over the world, he is well suited to produce this elegant Kiwi take on a Bordeaux blend.
