Villa Maria 2015 Private Bin Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, $20
A particularly dry growing season has given an extra edge to this classic New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, by concentrating its already rich tropical flavours. Notes of melon and passionfruit make this an inviting summer drop, its lively citrus and herbaceous aromas and zingy acidity capturing the essence of the world-renowned Marlborough region. When the weather’s sultry and you’re finding it difficult to lift yourself off the lounge, a glass of this easy-drinking wine goes down to a treat.
