Zingy, strong grapefruit with floral notes. A bit of cut grass on the finish, but not herbal or overly astringent. Very typical Marlborough. Well balanced and satisfying. A good PQR too.

88-89 points Bouquet strong gooseberry and citrus, some holunder blossoms, kiwi and minerals. Palate gooseberry, lots of green apples, some lime, mineralic, nice acidity and slim/not too sweet even a bit dry l would say but perfectly balanced. However cannot bear many dishes, better drink solo. Finish long finish

2018 Villa Maria Sauvignon Blanc (Marlborough) (7/13/2019) Recommended by Google This wine’s for the frugal Passion fruit in the nose More lime the taste shows Consistently crisp and deep Great value—both fair and cheap! (should be the house white for the White House)

Mango on the nose, passion fruit, big tropical fruit, Limes, satsumas and more tropical fruit on the palate, no shortage of fruit but it’s also a bit lacking in tension. Finishes short. Lots of people are going to enjoy this for all that upfront fruit but there’s not much more to it than that.

A nice but routine NZ Sauvignon Blanc. Pretty good value at $12, just nothing of real interest there.

Attractive tropical fruit, just a touch herbaceous, with good acidity, easy to drink, but simple, short, and uninteresting.
