Product Notes
Villa Maria Private Bin Sauvignon Blanc is a splendid New Zealand white wine, well-known for its vibrant character. It opens with refreshing notes of gooseberry, luscious tropical fruit and a touch of lime zest. On the palate, it offers a perfect balance of tangy acidity and hemmed-in sweetness. Light-bodied, with a crisply clean finish, it exhibits the classic Marlborough style. The aromatic intensity, flinty minerality, and zesty finish make it a delightful companion to seafood or a charming aperitif. A testament to Villa Maria's commitment to quality, this Sauvignon Blanc encapsulates the essence of premium Kiwi wine.
Tasting Notes
The 2019 Private Bin Sauvignon Blanc showcases everything fresh and vibrant about Marlborough. Initially, the classic Awatere aromas jump out of the glass, such as lemongrass, jalapeño peppers and fresh herbs. The cool climate in the Awatere Valley is influenced by Mt Tapuae-o-uenuku and the cool alpine winds and fresh sea breezes protect the natural acidity in this wine. In contrast, the Wairau Valley has warmer summer months, with dry nor-westerly winds influencing vineyards to produce a pungent Sauvignon Blanc with ripe citrus and tropical fruit flavours.
