Villa Maria Cellar Selection Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2021
- Dry style
- Grapefruit
- Herbaceous
- Round finish
"Upfront and beautifully aromatic, the wine shows passionfruit, feijoa and lime zest aromas with a hint of musky complexity. The palate displays excellent weight and fruit intensity backed by juicy acidity, finishing delectable and lingering. At its best: now to 2024" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Sep 2021
"Impressive wine for this entry-level label. Lush pineapple, passionfruit and guava flavours supported by lively acidity. A refreshing sauvignon blanc that is deliciously drinkable now" Bob Campbell, Master of Wine, Real Review, Aug 2021
Capturing the essence of Marlborough, this Cellar Selection Sauvignon Blanc is a blend of selected vineyards from the key sub regions within Marlborough. Pungent herbal aromas lead into a juicy palate bursting with zesty grapefruit and rock-melon, with a round weighty finish. The 2021 wine is 40% Wairau Valley with 60% Awatere Valley.
Summer was dry and mild with Marlborough’s signature high sunshine hours and cool nights delivering fruit in the best possible condition. The early 2021 autumn season provided Marlborough with very stable weather conditions therefore fruit was able to reach optimum physiological and flavour ripeness. The fruit was impeccably clean and the lower yields meant that the grapes packed a punch in flavour and concentration.
The Sauvignon Blanc grapes destined for this Cellar Selection wine were harvested in cool night temperatures to protect the aromatics. Clear juice is slowly fermented in stainless steel tanks using selected aromatic yeast strains. The wine is left to mature on yeast lees for a short period of time to build palate weight and texture into the wine, without compromising freshness.
Food Pairing: Serve lightly chilled, perfect as an aperitif or matched with any seafood dish.
