Villa Maria Sauvignon Blanc Private Bin 2010 - Marlborough, New Zealand

Very pale clear with only the slightest tinge of green.  Aromas take aim at the green spectrum with asparagus, sweet pea and green pepper. This has been, for many years what I consider a very good example in the Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc line up. Villa Maria seems to achieve a smarter balance in the sea of competition and can be relied upon for quality to value ratio. Flavours of lemongrass and guava lead into some mouth watering acidity to finish. This 2010 is still super fresh. A$18/bottle

89 points
