Vinification Details
- The 2018 vintage was warm and dry and fruit was harvested in pristine condition. Fruit from each vineyard was hand and machine harvested. Fermentation was conducted at 15°C with a yeast strain chosen to preserve the purity of fruit aromatics in the wine.
History
- In 1961, at the age of 21, Sir George Fistonich leased five acres of land from his father, planted one acre with grapes and started making wine under the name 'Villa Maria'. Still 100% New Zealand and family owned, Villa Maria Estate has gone from strength to strength over the last 50 years and is now distributed in over 50 countries worldwide
Regional Information
- Situated on the north-east coast of the South Island, Marlborough enjoys warm and sunny days, cooler nights and a long growing season. International demand for Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc has allowed the region's wine industry to blossom. The Marlborough region is split into two river valleys, the Wairau in the north and Awatere further south. The Wairau Valley has lower rainfall and cooler temperatures and the Awatere Valley soils are drier and less fertile, naturally minimising grape yield.
