Tasting Note

This 2018 Reserve Clifford Bay Sauvignon Blanc encompasses everything fresh and vibrant about Marlborough from the cooler and windier Awatere Valley. Pungent aromatics of lemongrass, jalapeño and fresh herbs leap from the glass, with the classic flavour of limes and the crunch of freshly picked garden peas. The cooler climate in the Awatere Valley is influenced by Mt Tapuae-o-uenuku with alpine winds flowing down the valley and from cooling easterly breezes coming inshore from Clifford Bay and the Pacific Ocean. This retains the natural acidity and emphasizes chalky-seashell and mineral texture on the finish.

Product Notes

Villa Maria Reserve Clifford Bay Sauvignon Blanc is a dry wine that can best be described as fresh and crisp. With its light straw color and aromas of herbaceous and citrus notes, this wine is perfect for those looking for a bright, refreshing drink. The grapefruit and passionfruit flavors are balanced by a slight mineral undertone, achieved by sourcing the grapes from the unique microclimate of the Clifford Bay region. This wine is a perfect companion for grilled seafood or herbaceous salads. The Villa Maria winery has carefully crafted this wine to showcase the best qualities of the sauvignon blanc grape and provide a delightful experience for wine lovers.

About the Winery

Villa Maria

Villa Maria is New Zealand’s most popular and most awarded winery today. George Fistonich was only 21 years old when he started this wine label. He got 5 acres of land in Mangere, Auckland, from his father, and set about to give wings to his winemaking passion. The very next year, he made his first wine from the grapes planted on this land, and he named the wine, Villa Maria.
