★★★★★, Cameron Douglas MS: "Smoky, earthy and mineral led bouquet. Complex and alluring. A great wine on the palate - dry, layers of spice and fruit, medium+ acidity, weighty and creamy. White peach and lemon, nectarine and red apple. Wood spice and wood smoke. Complex, layered, long."
Jordbunden på Taylors Pass Vineyard er en ypperlig eksponent for en mineraldrevet vinstil. Vinen har komplekse aromaer af citronskal, grapefrugt, hvid fersken, mandel, røg og brioche. Finishen er lang med subtile nuancer af velintegreret eg. En enkeltmarks Chardonnay med stor elegance!
Villa Maria Estate er kåret som NZ Winery of the Year af Winestate, New Zealands førende vinmagasin. Det er 16. gang ud af 21 mulige!
Winestate: “Villa Maria has a special place in the New Zealand wine world, and its claim to be New Zealand’s most awarded winery is easy to justify”.
