Blended from carefully selected vineyards in the warm Wairau Valley, this is an intense Sauvignon Blanc with a powerfully aromatic nose of ripe lime and passion fruit. The palate is complex and concentrated; by turns it is fresh and zesty and then opulent and textured with dense tropical fruit.
Founded in 1961, Villa Maria has grown to be New Zealand’s most successful privately owned producer, achieving extraordinary results in competitions worldwide. Villa Maria has two modern wineries – the stunning state of the art Auckland winery and vineyard park which was opened in 2005 and the Marlborough winery set amid gorgeous scenery just outside Blenheim. In 2004 Villa Maria achieved certification at the Higher Level to the British Retail Consortium Standards, a tribute to their exacting quality standards. The winemaking philosophy is to be non-intrusive, allowing the flavours of the fruit and the character of the vineyard to be expressed through the wine.
