Description

Dry

• Dry style
• Lime & lemongrass
• Grapefruit & passionfruit
• Zesty acidity

The Earth Garden Sauvignon Blanc has lifted aromas of citrus fruits, lime and grapefruit that leap from the glass. The flavours on the palate showcase fresh herbs, lemongrass and passionfruit. The intense fresh fruit concentration is balanced with zesty acidity and is perfectly thirst-quenching.

The winemaker's key focus is to be environmentally responsible and to operate using sustainable practices in order to protect the land for future generations. Villa Maria has farmed Sauvignon Blanc organically since 2010, gaining Biogro certification in 2012. This vineyards are vibrant gardens alive with wildflowers and full of life.

An exceptional growing season led up to 2020 harvest with fruit in pristine condition. The Summer was dry with high sunshine hours during the day and the cooler nights that are typical for Marlborough. Yields were at their optimum level and the stable Autumn weather allowed for extended hangtime of the fruit on the vines to achieve physiological ripeness.

Food Pairing: This wine is suitable for plant based diets, so perfect with Summer salads.
