Villa Maria Sauvignon Blanc Private Bin 2017

This Private Bin Sauvignon Blanc encompasses everything fresh and vibrant about Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. From the Awatere Valley come aromatics and flavours such as lemongrass, jalapeno and fresh herbs as well as natural fresh acidity. The cooler climate is influenced by Mt Tapuae-o-uenuku and the cool alpine winds that flow down the valley as well as cooling ocean breezes. In contrast, the Wairau Valley has warmer summer months with dry north-westerly winds influencing the vineyards, producing pungent Sauvignon Blanc with ripe citrus and tropical fruit flavors. Enjoy!

Perfect aperitif wine, serve chilled on warm summer days. Ripe citrus flavours in this wine will match any fresh seafood dish or salad course.

Fruit for this wine was sourced from vineyards across the Marlborough region in the Wairau and Awatere valleys spanning a range of different meso-climates. Careful attention was paid to vine health and cropping levels to give the vine the best chance to optimise the season and develop strong, clean flavours.
